Dr Masina, together with the staff at Melomed Mitchells Plain, strive to create a tranquil and supportive environment in our maternity units. Our modern hospital facilities incorporate various accommodation options to suit our patients’ specific needs, including private en-suite rooms and semi-private rooms.

Welcoming a new life into the world is undeniably one of life’s most special occasions, and Dr Masina strives to make your birthing experience a comfortable and unforgettable one. She is available to support you at every step of your amazing journey to parenthood – during pregnancy, your delivery, and after the baby’s birth. She provides birthing care for both natural births and caesarean sections.

Although the prospect of becoming a parent is exciting, it can nevertheless be a time of anxiety and uncertainty as you prepare for the birth of your baby and the new responsibilities that come along with it.

We encourage expectant parents (both mom and dad) to fully participate in developing a birth plan that suits their needs: from the type of birth to who should support the mother during delivery and what type of accommodation you would prefer.

Dr Masina will help you come up with a birthing plan that outlines your ideal birth; this may need to be adjusted as the actual birth unfolds. Speak with your partner to decide who you want with you in the birthing room. Your birth plan may include other considerations like pain relief during labour and delivery positions.

Whether you prefer a natural delivery or a caesarean section, Dr Masina will be able to advise you on what may be the best choice for your baby as well as what to expect from each choice.
