Dr Guy Skinner

"My husband and I decided to choose Dr Skinner and his team to care for us during our twin pregnancy and for Guy to deliver our babies. We definitely made the right choice. Guy has an impeccable bedside manner and a very reassuring and calm demeanor. Post delivery Guy visited us in the hospital on multiple occasions just to ensure that we are doing well and getting back on our feet. His administration team of experienced midwives were always a phone call or email away to assist with any queries. Our twins were monitored closely throughout and safely delivered. Overall Guy and his team went over and beyond to ensure that we all had a great experience and for that we are eternally grateful."

"I had a wonderful pregnancy and journey to motherhood under the care of Guy and Tanya. As a first time mum, I sought a natural birth without intervention, but still with the continuity of care and oversight of an OB incase something should go wrong. I found Guy to be friendly, reassuring, progressive and supportive of my birth preferences, and it made for the most positive and rewarding experience. Birth is epic! Thank you Guy and Tanya!"

"My baby died at 33 weeks gestation whilst in the 'care' of Dr Skinner. In the week leading up to my baby's passing, I had noticed a reduction in movement but didn't think anything of it as Guy had failed to educate me on the topic. When I questioned him about this at my 4-week post natal appointment, he stated that there is no evidence to back foetal movement monitoring & its subsequent reduction in stillbirth. I now know this to be a complete lie. The reality is, this tragedy should never have occurred and Dr Skinner let his ego get in the way of proper care & transparency."

"Reduced fetal movement awareness would have potentially meant that my baby did not die in Dr Skinners care. He wasn’t even there at the still-birth of my child. A clear lack of care and understanding."

"Doctor Guy Skinner is such a great OB being my first pregnancy I was very nervous but he always made me feel relaxed and that everything was going to be ok. He delivered our beautiful healthy girl in December. Throughout the process Tanya the gorgeous midwife I was seeing and Guy made me feel so relaxed, informed and empowered whilst having a great sense of humour in between. Any question was not too hard and each time you need something they are just a phone call away. I highly recommend Guy and his team to any patient that wants a specialised, great and educational experience! The entire team at St Vincents Private in Fitzroy are also amazing, we will be forever grateful. I will miss my appointments!"
