"Welcoming our little girl into the world"

About: King Edward Memorial Hospital / Maternity

(as the patient),

Being part of the MGP5 program was an amazing experience. Coming from Melbourne and being away from our family and support network, having the continuity of care and support from the midwives made such a positive difference throughout my pregnancy. I always felt listened to, supported and cared for, and knowing that I had familiar midwives around me helped me feel much more confident and reassured.

All of the midwives we met were amazing and genuinely caring, and the support we received throughout the pregnancy and birth was wonderful. The aftercare was also fantastic and made such a difference during those early days with our beautiful daughter.

We are incredibly grateful to the MGP5 team and everyone at KEMH for the care, kindness and support they gave us. It was such a special experience, and we feel very lucky to have been part of the program.

Dear Phoenixfr76,

Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl and thank you for sharing your positive experience with Midwifery Group Practice (MGP5). Being away from your support network during pregnancy can be challenging so I was pleased to hear how well cared for and reassured you felt under the care of the MGP5 team.

At the Women & Newborn Health Service, we strive to provide the very best care to our patients and it clear that the kindness and support provided to you along your journey ensured your experience was a positive one.

Wishing you and your family all the best.

Kind regards,

Kirstie
