It is with a heavy heart that we regret to inform you that we have made the decision to close the Port Kennedy branch of Western Obstetrics as of the 28th of September. Please note that the Balcatta Branch will remain open.

The decision to close this clinic has been a challenging one for us, as we have valued serving the Rockingham and Port Kennedy communities for the past 2 years. Unfortunately, due to the current economic climate, we have no choice but to cease operations at our Port Kennedy location.

We have already contacted all current patients at the Port Kennedy location, to let them know what their options are going forward. If you fall into this category and have not been contacted, please call us as soon as possible and we can discuss with you.

While this news may be disheartening, we want to assure you that our Balcatta clinic will continue to thrive and offer a wide range of services to meet your healthcare needs. Our Balcatta location remains fully operational, providing the following services:

• Antenatal care
• Postnatal care
• Pre-pregnancy care
• Women’s Health
• Lactation support
• Physiotherapy
• Psychology
• Dietitian services
• Immunisations
• Educational resources
• Vasectomy clinic
