Dr Alexander Owen

Dr Owen is an obstetrician, gynaecologist and sonologist (ultrasound specialist) with a special interest in high-risk pregnancy. His consulting rooms are in Bondi Junction, and I deliver at both Prince of Wales Private Hospital, and the Royal Hospital for Women, Randwick.

He obtained a medical degree and a Master of Reproductive Medicine from the University of New South Wales, and undertook my specialist training at Liverpool Hospital and the Royal Hospital for Women. This culminated in two years of fellowship training, in maternal-fetal medicine and obstetric and gynaecological ultrasound.

He holds a Diploma of Diagnostic Ultrasound, which recognises my specialist skills in performing and interpreting obstetric and gynaecological ultrasound scans: an integral part of his practice.

Dr Owen has a longstanding interest in teaching medical students and junior doctors. In addition to his private practice, he work as Staff Specialist at the Royal Hospital for Women where he supervises obstetricians in training.

His greatest achievements, however, are his three beautiful children who (unlike my long-suffering wife) think their Daddy is hilarious.
