Finding an obstetrician you trust is an essential part of any modern pregnancy and birth plan. We also offer high-risk obstetrics care for pregnancy with multiples or health conditions affecting you or your baby.

For trustworthy, expert obstetrics care, call our practice or book an appointment online today.

Obstetrics is a medical specialty closely linked to gynaecology. However, the two aren’t the same. Obstetrics specifically focuses on your health and your baby’s health from the time of conception, throughout your pregnancy, to the time you give birth and shortly after. 

Our practice can provide treatments and services, including surgery, to make your pregnancy as smooth as possible. We also provide high-risk obstetric care if you or your baby have health complications that could compromise the health of the pregnancy. 

Dr Hall can help you create a birth plan that makes you feel confident and safe. If any unforeseen complications occur during your pregnancy, he can provide necessary testing and treatment to get the pregnancy back on track.

High-risk obstetrics care is necessary when a condition or unusual circumstance puts the pregnancy at risk. Dr Hall  provides expert high-risk obstetrics care for pregnancies affected by the following circumstances and more:

  • Multiples

Getting pregnant with twins, triplets, or even more babies is exciting, but it can come with many risks that don’t apply to single births. You’re more likely to develop a condition called preeclampsia or to go into early labor. 

  • Hypertension

Hypertension or high blood pressure usually doesn’t come with symptoms. You might not realize you have it until you start visiting a doctor for your pregnancy. Your obstetrics provider monitors you closely throughout the pregnancy, and you may need to change hypertension medications if your pregnancy affects their effectiveness.

  • Diabetes

Diabetes can occur before your pregnancy, or you might develop gestational diabetes during pregnancy. The high levels of blood sugar resulting from diabetes can put your baby’s health at risk, so your obstetrician needs to monitor your baby’s health closely. They can also help you manage your diabetes with nutritional counselling and medications.

  • Thyroid disorders

If you have a thyroid disorder, you may be at a higher risk for pregnancy complications like miscarriage and foetal                 growth restriction. Your obstetrics specialist provides personalized treatment and monitoring for you and your baby.
