About this service
Global obstetric care in Windhoek at Eastgate Clinic is an all-inclusive package covering your antenatal care and delivery under the guidance of a visiting obstetrician. Rather than booking each appointment and stage of care separately, this package brings your pregnancy monitoring, check-ups and the delivery itself together under one arrangement, giving you continuity of care from a consistent obstetric team through to birth. Delivery takes place in our on-site day theatre, prepared for both vaginal and caesarean births depending on how your labour progresses and what your obstetrician recommends.
Many expecting parents find this bundled approach reassuring, since it means the same team following your pregnancy is also there when it is time to deliver. Your obstetrician will go through exactly what is included when you book.
What to expect
- Regular antenatal check-ups monitor your health and your baby's development throughout pregnancy.
- Your obstetrician discusses your birth plan and any preferences as your due date approaches.
- Delivery takes place in our day theatre, with anaesthesia arranged according to how labour progresses.
- Postnatal follow-up care is included as part of the package.
Who is it for?
You may be advised to have this if you are dealing with:
- Expecting parents wanting continuity of care through pregnancy and delivery
- Those who prefer one obstetric team managing pregnancy from start to finish
- Pregnancies where a visiting obstetrician's care is recommended
- Anyone wanting an all-inclusive approach to antenatal care and birth
Frequently asked questions
What is included in a global obstetric care package?
Your antenatal visits, the delivery itself and postnatal follow-up are bundled under one visiting obstetrician. The obstetrician will confirm what is covered, and anything outside the package is explained before you commit.
Can I have a caesarean or a natural birth under global obstetric care?
Both. Delivery takes place in our on-site day theatre with an anaesthetist and theatre staff present, and your obstetrician recommends the safest approach as labour progresses.
Does medical aid cover a pregnancy and delivery package?
Many medical aid plans have maternity benefits, but what is covered varies by scheme and option. We welcome medical aid and private patients, so contact us before booking to check how your plan applies.
