Birthright Associates

"After losing our son at 8 months under their care, we received no aftercare or condolences from them. I would advise anyone to think twice before entrusting these people with your babies."

"1. Despite arriving 20 minutes prior to our scheduled 2:05 appointment, we were made to wait until 2:45 until we had to leave without a scan without any explanation or update on the delay. Waiting for an entire hour was highly unprofessional and disrespectful of our time. 2. Throughout the wait, no apologies or reasons for the delay were provided, apart from vague statements suggesting it depended on the doctor. This lack of communication and transparency added to our frustration. 3. To our dismay, when the previous patients left at 2:20, we observed the doctor engaging in a phone conversation, completely disregarding his duty to attend to patients. This behavior further demonstrated a lack of professionalism. 4. The overall attitude and lack of respect shown towards patients was deeply concerning. I am relieved that this was our first booking and no fees were paid, as it has solidified our decision to avoid Birthright Auckland in the future. 5. It is distressing to imagine a scenario where the doctor might be absent on the day of childbirth, given the disregard for patients demonstrated during our appointment. Considering these circumstances, I strongly advise others to avoid Birthright Auckland. Their unprofessionalism, lack of respect, and poor communication make them an unsuitable choice for any medical care."

"I have had my last three babies, (out of four) delivered by Birthright and it has been such a wonderful experience. I find pregnancy really hard and have had C-sections with all three, which I also find hard and scary. The whole team is amazing. Passionate, with patient centric care and incredibly skilled at what they do. I have felt empowered and listened to each time. They have looked after me and my babies so incredibly well and really made challenging and scary times feel doable. I am so grateful. I wish every parent could have the experience of being cared for by them."

"Can’t speak highly enough of Birthright. All of the obstetricians were amazing to deal with, super informative and caring. After going through IVF and being high risk we knew from the first appointment we were in safe hands. Dr Olivia Stuart delivered our twin boys via elective c section and we can’t speak highly enough of her. Right from us entering her room in the hospital she was professional and super excited for us. This followed on throughout the c section and after it was over my partner made comment that she was as excited as we were and her passion shined through. Thank you Dr for safely bringing our twin boys into this world we can never thank you enough ❤️"
