The Leader Newspaper has announced the opening of a Women’s Mental Health Clinic in Sandringham Hospital last week.
Professor Kulkarni established this satellite clinic which specialises in antenatal psychiatry assessments. The clinic will provide expert psychiatric opinion for women during pregnancy with a view to prevent postnatal complications such as post natal depression or psychosis. The demand for appointments in this clinic is growing rapidly.

Women’s Mental Health Clinic at the Alfred is in high demand!
The Women’s Mental Health Clinic was launched at the Alfred Hospital by Professor Kulkarni in October 2010. Over a short period of time, the clinic has expanded and the demand for appointments is at an all time high. But with good reason – this unique clinic offers women second opinion appointments by a team of experienced consultants who have expert knowledge in the area of women’s mental health. Following an in-depth consultation between the women and our medical professionals, a management plan is provided to the women and her treating team including new treatment approaches and the latest research findings to educate.
