Female Obstetrician in Sydney
My Obstetric Care
Dr Vickie Chio
Experienced and caring obstetrician who can offer guidance and work together with you to help achieve a safe and fulfilling journey of pregnancy and birth
Personalised Care for Every Stage
of Your Pregnancy
I am Dr Vickie Chio, an experienced specialist obstetrician and gynaecologist consulting in Parramatta and Liverpool, with births at Westmead Private Hospital, the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and Liverpool Hospital.
Pregnancy generates as many questions as milestones. In partnership with you, I provide consistent care and clear evidence‑based guidance throughout your pregnancy, collaborating with you to develop a management plan shaped by your clinical needs and individual circumstances and priorities, rather than conforming to a template.
Consultations are available in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

YOUR CARE, FROM FIRST VISIT TO CARE AFTER BIRTH
A short visit-by-visit outline of what happens at each appointment through the pregnancy. This is the single most useful page section for prospective patients and the one most often missing from competitor sites. Content to be drafted from your usual schedule of visits.
You will see me every four to six weeks early in pregnancy, with visits increasing as you progress and weekly in the final weeks. If concerns arise for either of us at any time, additional appointments will be arranged.
At our first appointment, we organise routine blood and urine tests to check your blood type, blood count and immunity to common infections. If your GP or IVF specialist has already completed these, please bring the results to avoid repeat testing. we also discuss prenatal screening options — including screening for major chromosomal disorders including Down syndrome at 11–14 weeks and genetic carrier screening — so you can make informed decisions that suit your values and circumstances.
Between 18 and 20 weeks, you will be referred for a detailed structural ultrasound. At 24–28 weeks, you will complete a glucose tolerance test and repeat blood count, with further testing at 34–36 weeks if needed.
We will also discuss recommended vaccinations in pregnancy, including influenza, pertussis (whooping cough), and RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), to ensure optimal protection for both you and your baby.
Childbirth education classes are recommended, especially for first‑time parents. You may choose hospital‑based group classes or private sessions with a midwife. Many women also explore additional birth preparation such as exercise, breathing techniques and CPR/ first aid for babies and children. Books and resources can be helpful, though not all advice you receive will be accurate — I am always happy to clarify.
Throughout your pregnancy, we will discuss your birth preferences, questions and any concerns. Bringing a support person to one or two visits can be useful. If issues arise between appointments, you can contact my rooms during business hours at Parramatta (02) 8006 6682 or Liverpool (02) 9734 4918. For urgent concerns, I am available via the midwives in the Birth Suite at your booked maternity hospital.

FEES AND REBATES
My reception team will provide a clear explanation of the fee structure at your first contact, and you are welcome to call at any time if you would like further detail or clarification.
Doctor’s fees are grouped into services known as Medicare items, which allows you to claim Medicare and Extended Medicare Safety Net (EMSN) rebates. Medicare and private health funds rebate only a proportion of fees for private obstetric care, and the Medicare Safety Net provides additional rebate once you have reached your annual threshold. For more information, please visit www.medicareaustralia.com.au.
The fee structure provided by my reception team relates solely to my services and do not include health‑fund excesses or fees charged by other health professionals, if applicable. If you have any questions about fees, rebates or the Medicare Safety Net, please feel free to contact my rooms — my staff are always happy to guide you through the process.
