Dr Karen Sheng

Dr Karen Sheng deserves more than 5 stars! She delivered my first baby at the Mater Hospital. From the moment I first met with Karen, she had our trust with her friendliness and deep knowledge of her field. Dr Karen was strongly recommended to us by a friend who also had 2 boys delivered by her.

Karen skill is impeccable and her experience is second to none. We were very impressed with her management of the pregnancy and the delivery process. Karen provides professional advice and detailed explanations throughout the entire process. I felt being look after and cared for the whole way. I will def be using Karen again for my next baby!

Dr Karen Sheng is one of the most caring medical professionals I have ever met. Right from our first appointment at 8 weeks until birth I knew I was in safe hands as Karen guided me through not only my first, but high-risk pregnancy. She safely delivered our daughter into the world with kindness and compassion and when she required 2 days in special care Karen was very reassuring, holding my hand after the birth and then popping into visit each day I was in hospital. Her office manager Jo is also extremely caring and lovely to deal with. If I have another baby, I will definitely use Karen again.

Our third baby and Karen has been fantastic during this journey! Excellent communicator and made me and my wife at ease. I highly recommend Karen!

Dr Karen Sheng is warm, personable and attentive. She was a stand-in for my Dr as he was on leave and to be honest- I couldn’t be more happier with how it panned out.

She instantly made a connection with me and helped me deliver smoothly, calmly and naturally.

I felt well looked after, reassured and informed. It was such a positive experience and I owe it to Dr Sheng’s complete control and kindest throughout the whole process.

Dr. Karen Sheng is an exceptional obstetrician who exceeded our expectations in every way. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and high-quality care are outstanding, and we were also thoroughly impressed with the top-notch facilities at the Mater Hospital.

We were completely satisfied with her services during the recent birth of our son, and would happily engage her services again for our any future children.

Very happy with Dr Karen Sheng as well as her receptionist/assistant, Jo.
Very warm and personable to talk to and helped me feel at ease. Also very knowledgeable which helped me feel super comfortable having my procedure done with her. Glad to have been referred to Dr Sheng and would definitely go back to her for any future needs.

Dr Sheng is an extremely attentive, competent and warm Obstetrician. I wouldn't hesitate to use her for a subsequent pregnancy or recommend her to friends.

She read my personality like a book and provided the right amount of information at the right time. My communications with Dr Sheng and her lovely Assistant, Jo, throughout my pregnancy was consistently efficient, clear, professional and yet friendly. I was never made to feel a query was silly or inconvenient.

She managed my minor pregnancy related complications with proficiency, sensitivity and the perfect touch of humour.

Dr Sheng is an 'extra mile' person, and sacrificed her precious time off to visit me whilst recovering in hospital.

I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind she brought to me and my husband.

Dr Karen Sheng looked after me and my baby during my second pregnancy and gave me the personal care and reassurance I hoped for and needed.

Given complications during my first birthing experience (5 day labour and significant back pain, with baby malpositioned and placental abruption discovered after emergency c-section) I decided I wanted a private obstetrician (with stay and further care provided by the Royal North Shore Public Hospital) for consistency of care given potential risks in the next delivery.

Karen was brilliant. She was professional and very personable. She took time to understand my history, my preferences and my worries, and talked through each stage, medical procedure and risk factor clearly and in as much detail as I desired explaining the medical language as needed.

Karen was also available to me when ever I had concerns outside of appointments responding to emails or calls quickly. She was there in person when I thought I was in labour (but wasn't) and when finally my waters broke to ensure my elective c-section would go to plan. And Karen visited after the baby was born despite having delivered babies night and day tirelessly during an unexpectally busy time.

Karen's receptionist is also amazing. My husband and I felt so at ease being looked after by these two. Highly recommended.

Dr Sheng is wonderful. She’s attentive and caring. I would highly recommend Dr Sheng for all your gynaecology or obgyn needs

Dr Sheng is always so kind and considerate. Truly a genuine caring soul.
