Dr Simon Winder
I grew up in the western suburbs of Sydney where my parents were small business trades people. I worked my way through university in a variety of jobs and completed my medical education at the University of NSW, graduating in 1996. Over the past 25+ years I have worked mostly in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, as well as extensively in Accident & Emergency Medicine including in rural and remote settings.

Our Services
Your pregnancy is unique to you. It’s also exciting and overwhelming all at once. We understand that and provide a comprehensive range of services that enables us to provide complete care and support tailored to your circumstances, choices and specific needs.
Early Pregnancy
The confirmation that you are pregnant can be the most exciting news you’ve heard in a long time.
General Obstetrics
Congratulations on your pregnancy! This is an exciting time, but also a daunting time, with so many changes, and so much to learn.
High-Risk Obstetrics
A high-risk pregnancy means there is an above average risk of complications for you and your baby during your pregnancy, birth, and after the delivery.
Gynaecology
Gynaecology, diagnosis and treatment of issues related to women’s reproductive system, is fundamentally linked to obstetrics. A priority for Dr Winder is your overall health and wellbeing by providing continuity of care.
Fertility
Finding yourself trying to become pregnant without success is more common than you realise – in fact, one in six Australian couples will experience baby-making struggles at some point during their lives.
