Women's Health at Auckland City Hospital provides high-quality health services for women who need maternity, newborn, gynaecology and fertility care. Our specialist teams are here to ensure our patients and their whānau get the best possible care with the best possible outcomes. 

We are committed to providing a quality and culturally appropriate service for all women, and we value our partnership with Māori in delivering services which reflect Kaupapa Māori to meet the needs of wahine and whānau. 

Our National Women's Hospital is the largest maternity hospital in Australasia, with approximately 6,500 babies born each year; we are a tertiary referral centre whilst also providing primary maternity care to women in the central Auckland area. Our services are spread across the region to include community clinics, women’s homes, outpatient clinics and hospital care.

We’re a collaborative, passionate and hardworking team made up of specialist doctors, nurses, midwives, gynaecologists, health care assistants, ward clerks and team administrators. We understand these experiences for our women form key milestones within their lives and therefore strive to achieve our vision of Healthy communities – World-class healthcare – Achieved together.

We’re proudly developing a strong and well-supported culture of learning and innovation, promoting diversity and developing new career pathways for our employees that acknowledge and reward their expertise whilst promoting postgraduate study to enhance and further career opportunities.
