Health Vistors & Midwives

Midwives at Hanham Surgery

Anne and Sheena work with the doctors to provide care and advice to all pregnant women. They are available to give advice on your options for antenatal care, where you can give birth (including at home) and how best to look after yourself and your partner when trying for a baby and during pregnancy.

The midwives run antenatal clinics, birth preparation classes, and a home birth support group with other local midwives. Antenatal clinic visits are available with either the midwife or the doctor.
Your booking appointment will be arranged at the Surgery when you are 10-12 weeks pregnant.
