Dr Shaddock founded Athena O&G on a single conviction: that women deserve to be cared for by a specialist who genuinely knows them — from the first appointment through to the last.
Expert private obstetric care with genuine continuity from first consultation through to birth and beyond.
Skilled gynaecological care with a focus on minimally invasive techniques and empowered patient outcomes.
Compassionate, evidence-based fertility care that respects your individual circumstances and goals.
Dr Shaddock believes that exceptional medical care begins with genuinely listening. Her approach combines the highest clinical standards with a deep commitment to seeing and hearing every patient as an individual.
Longer consultations, direct access and real continuity of care mean you always feel informed and supported — whether you're navigating a first pregnancy, managing a complex gynaecological condition, or exploring your fertility options.
All care is grounded in the latest clinical evidence and best practice guidelines.
Consistent, ongoing care from a specialist who truly knows your history and needs.
Appointments designed with enough time to discuss your care, ask questions and feel genuinely heard.
Dr Shaddock is present at your birth wherever possible and provides 24-hour on-call for obstetric patients.
