Re: advice on sydney public hospitals
my OH had 2 kids at the Royal North Shore in St Leonards (lower north shore).
Both times there were no problems and the service provided was excellent.
I can't comment on any other hospitals, good luck

This forum is good for advice.http://www.essentialbaby.com.au/foru...p?showforum=44
I'll be at the RPA as it's next door so I've not really researched (just plain lazy), but I found this site

We used the children's hospital part when we lived there, and were pretty happy with them.
Nepean Hospital if you are a bit further west.

My wife was happy with Nepeans pre birth services. But ended up in UK for the actual birth

Re: advice on sydney public hospitals
Westmead is OK. Or the Royal Prince Alfred in the city, where we had our second. The hospital system here we found to be a lot better than the UK (sorry, NHS ...) and all on Medicare. The GP system for new mums is not so good, however - you're pretty much on your own, no nurses, health visitors etc.
