We recommend you choose your pediatrician by the last month of your pregnancy. You will need to discuss with your pediatrician whether they have privileges at St. David’s South Austin Hospital and will be able to care for your newborn during your hospital stay. St. David’s South Austin Hospital have Neonatologist that will attend to your baby. If your pediatrician does not have privileges at SAMC, the pediatrician on call will care for your newborn. There is a separate charge for your pediatrician’s services and you will need to contact your insurance company to see if they are providers for your insurance. Please inform us of your pediatrician choice.
