Trusted Gynaecologists in Sydney
Evidence-based gynaecology care
Why See a Gynaecologist?
Gynaecological issues are deeply personal and yet too often, women feel brushed off, misunderstood, or uncomfortable seeking care. At Ponti Health, we partner with top gynaecologists in Sydney who understand the nuance of women’s health and prioritise respectful, collaborative care.
A gynaecologist is a specialist doctor focused on reproductive and pelvic health. Whether you’re experiencing painful periods, navigating fertility challenges, or entering perimenopause, our gynaecologists offer medical expertise and emotional care to help you feel seen, safe and supported.
What Can a Gynaecologist Help With?
Our Sydney gynaecologists diagnose and treat a broad range of reproductive and pelvic health concerns, including:
Painful, heavy or irregular periods
Endometriosis and adenomyosis
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Fibroids and ovarian cysts
Recurrent UTIs or vaginal infections
Pelvic pain and painful sex (dyspareunia)
Fertility assessments and support
Contraception counselling and IUD insertions
Cervical screening and abnormal pap smear management
Perimenopause and menopause symptom support
Postpartum gynaecological issues (prolapse, healing concerns)
Vulval skin conditions (e.g. lichen sclerosus)
Our approach is not one-size-fits-all. We aim to understand your body’s story and create a treatment plan that meets your personal needs and goals.
Gynaecologist vs GP or Women’s Health Physio - Who Should I See?
While a women’s health GP is a great first step for many general health issues, a gynaecologist is a specialist in complex or persistent reproductive health concerns, especially if symptoms haven’t improved with initial treatment. They can conduct advanced investigations, perform procedures, and manage chronic conditions like endometriosis.
At Ponti Health, we believe in team-based care. Your gynaecologist may work alongside our GPs, physiotherapists, and mental health providers to ensure you receive well-rounded support because your body isn’t made up of separate systems, and neither is our care.
Why Choose Ponti’s Gynaecologists?
At Ponti, we understand that women’s health is deeply personal and often complex. That’s why our gynaecologists take the time to truly listen, investigate thoroughly, and care for you holistically. We're not just here for quick scripts or rushed check-ups. We're here for real conversations, collaborative care, and long-term wellbeing.
Here’s what makes our approach different:
Deep experience in treating a wide range of women’s reproductive health concerns
Evidence-based, patient-centred care with room for real conversations
Clear communication, we’ll always explain your options and involve you in every decision
Seamless referrals and collaboration across GP, physios, psychologists and dietetics
A whole-person approach that looks beyond symptoms to understand your full picture
Sydney-based women’s health clinic designed by women, for women

Your consideration helps us ensure equitable access to timely care for all patients. We're committed to working collaboratively with you to find practical solutions when challenges arise.
-
To secure your initial psychiatry consultation, we require a $400 deposit at the time of booking. Your deposit will be applied towards your consultation fee on the day of your appointment.
The deposit is fully refundable with 48 hours' notice of cancellation
-
We understand that life can be unpredictable. We do ask for advance notice which allows us to offer your appointment to someone on our waiting list. We currently have waitlists for appointments (which we wish we didn't), and many patients are hoping for earlier availability.
We are available via 0272010015 or if you have Concierge services, please text us.
Cancellation/Rescheduling: 24 hours notice
To ensure all patients receive the care they deserve, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
Running Late?
Please Call us 0272010015 or if you have Concierge service, please text us.
We completely understand that life can be unpredictable, and sometimes delays are simply unavoidable.
To ensure we can provide the best care for all our patients, please call or text us immediately if you're running behind schedule. We'll always do our best to accommodate you.
What to expect:
Up to 15 minutes late: We'll still see you, though your appointment may be shortened to respect other patients' scheduled times
Full consultation fee applies regardless of appointment length, as your time slot remains reserved for you
Why this matters: We currently have waitlists for appointments (which we wish we didn't), and many patients are hoping for earlier availability. When we can predict delays, we're sometimes able to contact waiting patients to offer your slot, then reschedule you appropriately.
No-Show Policy
We care deeply about ensuring every patient has access to the care they need. To support this, we have comprehensive reminder systems in place - we'll text, email, and call to confirm your appointment.
Despite these efforts, some patients don't attend their scheduled appointments. This impacts not only our ability to provide timely care but also means another patient who needed that appointment time has missed their opportunity for support.
When you don't attend a scheduled appointment without prior notice, you'll be charged the full consultation fee. Additionally, we'll require a deposit before booking your next appointment.
