Maternity & Parenting

Watford General Hospital

If you think you might be pregnant and have had several positive home pregnancy tests, you do not need to contact the GP. Instead, you can self-refer directly to the midwives.

Once you’ve submitted your self-referral, the midwifery team will contact you directly to arrange your care.
