Feb 15, 2018

More than 5,000 babies have been born at Greenslopes Private Hospital within five years of its first-class maternity service opening.

When Patrick Deane arrived on 7 February 2018, he was the 5,000th baby to be delivered at Greenslopes Maternity.

Obstetrician Dr Melissa McKenzie said it was an honour to be involved in the milestone moment.

“It’s a privilege to care for every family who sees me during their pregnancy journey and it’s always an incredibly special time when any baby is born,” Dr McKenzie said.

“I love being a part of the Greenslopes Maternity team. It’s a team which offers the highest standard of care whilst also keeping the service personalised and friendly.

“I continue to look forward to caring for my patients and being there for future landmarks at Greenslopes!”

26 February 2018 marks the maternity ward’s fifth birthday.

Greenslopes Private Hospital would like to thank all the families, doctors, midwives, nurses, and staff who have helped to create this premier maternity service for Queensland patients.
