Referral Information The Early Pregnancy Clinic at North Shore Hospital sees women up to 19 weeks pregnant who have a confirmed pregnancy loss on ultrasound. Women must be well and have minimal symptoms. Unfortunately women are not able to self-refer. Women who have concerns about bleeding and/or pain in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy should contact their GP or Lead Maternity Carer (Midwife). Clinic Location & Times Clinics run Monday – Friday afternoons from 1pm. Women should report to Hinetuanuku Women's Health Clinic on Ground Floor at North Shore Hospital for their clinic appointment. Women will be seen in the clinic for an initial appointment to discuss treatment options and arrange a treatment plan.
