New pregnancy referral
Early access to maternity care is important to ensure that all the appropriate care options are discussed with you, including all antenatal screening options. This is important for you and your baby’s health
You can do this by either:
Self-Refer
Please complete our online self-referral form.
Get in touch with your local midwife
You can also see your local midwife at your GP and they will send a referral for you.
The contact details for your Community Midwife can be obtained by ringing the numbers below:
- Saint Mary’s Oxford Road Campus, Trafford General & Lanceburn Health Centre Salford: 0161 276 6246
- Saint Mary’s at Wythenshawe: 0161 291 2942
- Saint Mary’s at North Manchester General Hospital: 0161 720 2133/7021
Once the referral has been sent, you will be offered a booking appointment, usually within two weeks, with a midwife.
Your pregnancy care may be based with you community midwife, in the hospital antenatal clinics, or a mixture of both. This is dependent on where you live and whether you have any pre-existing medical conditions.
If you have any concerns prior to seeing your midwife on your first appointment such as bleeding or pain, please contact the Emergency Gynaecology Unit, Ward F16 at Wythenshawe Hospital, please call 0161 291 2561.
