Hi RunningT - as far as I am aware there are no practising obstitricians in Hamilton (I went looking for one when I first found out I was pregnant). My GP used to be one, but these days he is not practising. I'm afraid its all midwifes in Hamilton. -------------

Probably too late for you now, but Dr Ravikanti was my Dr at Fertility Associates while I was trying for this bub. She was wonderful, and I totally recommend her. I haven't, of course, had any experiance with her as an obstetrician, but I don't doubt she'd do a great job of that too. -------------

Hi there
There are practising obstetricians in hamilton- VP Singh is fantastic!! ALso Lakshmi Ravikanti. I have dealt with both with infertility and they offer themselves to those willing to pay 'privately'. I am booked in to see another obstetrician next week as there may be a complication associated with my babies birth- minimal but the hamilton hospital antenatal team have got hold of me- there are a few public ones up there that are able to help. Hope this helps!! :-) Good luck for your friend! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

This is a website that will allow you to contact Lakshmi or VP. They are $3500 though!! eek- but so worth the peace of mind if you need it!! |
