Bringing a new life into the world is a joyous and transformative experience, and having a supportive and experienced healthcare team by your side can make all the difference. At Clarity Medical, we understand the significance of comprehensive maternity care, and that’s why we are thrilled to introduce our Maternity Shared Care program, led by Dr. Katie Mellor in collaboration with the Royal Women’s Hospital and Monash Womens.
Understanding Maternity Shared Care:
Maternity Shared Care is a unique approach to prenatal care that combines the expertise of your trusted general practitioner with the specialised care provided by a leading maternity hospital. This collaboration ensures a seamless and holistic healthcare experience for expectant mothers, emphasising continuity of care from conception to delivery. Benefits of Shared Maternity Care include more flexibility for your appointments, reduced waiting times for appointments, seeing the same clinician each time and having someone look after you in your pregnancy that you already know and trust. It can make your care feel so much more personal in what can be an absolute rollercoaster – it’s oh-so-exciting but oh-so-scary at the same time knowing a baby is on the way but, don’t worry, we’ve got your back.
Meet Dr. Katie Mellor:
Our Maternity Shared Care program is spearheaded by the experienced and compassionate Dr. Katie Mellor. With a wealth of knowledge in obstetrics and a genuine commitment to women’s health, Dr. Mellor is dedicated to providing personalised care that considers each patient’s unique needs and preferences.
