What an obstetrician and gynaecologist does

Obstetricians are specialist doctors who care for women through pregnancy and birth, and gynaecologists care for reproductive health more broadly. Many work across both. In a private pathway your obstetrician is usually the person who sees you at most appointments and who is there for the birth.

Women see an obstetrician privately from early pregnancy onwards, or in the public system when a pregnancy needs specialist input. You do not need one to have a safe birth: midwifery-led models are an equally evidence-based option for healthy pregnancies.

Referrals, fees and Medicare

You will need a referral from your GP to claim the Medicare rebate.

Medicare pays a rebate towards private obstetric consultations, and the gap between the rebate and the fee is yours to pay. Private obstetric care usually carries a booking or management fee as well. Private health insurance covers the hospital side rather than the doctor's fee, and obstetric cover carries a twelve month waiting period.
