Preconception Care

Chronic medical conditions can impact on pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period. Dr Suvi Hyytinen is able to provide a tailored management plan for medical disorders in pregnancy. Preconception consultations are available. Preconception planning ensures that the disease is stable and medications are optimised for pregnancy.

Pregnancy Care

The care of women and families during pregnancy should focus on emotional and physical preparation for birth and parenthood. Dr Suvi Hyytinen offers a flexible and patient centred model of antenatal care. Her care may include home visits for routine antenatal checks as well as postnatal follow up in the home including lactation support. Contact our rooms for more information on the antenatal care options available at Evelyn and Rose.

Birth

Preparing for the birth of your baby is an exciting time. You will be provided with education and opportunities to discuss your questions regarding birth during your pregnancy care. Dr Suvi aims to be at the birth of all of the women that she cares for.

Diabetes in Pregnancy and High risk care

Optimal management of diabetes in pregnancy begins in the months before pregnancy. Dr Suvi Hyytinen is able to provide detailed pre-pregnancy care for women with Type I and Type II diabetes. Diabetes in pregnancy requires a multidisciplinary approach and care by a team including an Obstetrician, Endocrinologist (Diabetes specialist), Diabetes educator and Dietician. Evelyn and Rose Women’s Health works in partnership with a specialist diabetes team during pregnancy

Pregnancy After Loss

Women and couples who have experienced losses such as stillbirth and recurrent miscarriage walk a different road during pregnancy. As such, they require specialised assessment, planning and supportive care from preconception and during very early pregnancy. Our specialists are able to provide supportive care from preconception to birth in these challenging pregnancies in partnership with our midwife and an experienced counsellor in reproductive loss.

Our difference

Choosing your Obstetrician is important not just the Hospital. Choose the Obstetrician that can positively support you and aligns with your birthing values. Dr Suvi has been alongside you on your pregnancy journey and is going to follow through....even on the weekend, or her Birthday...
