Liezel Venter

Hi, my name is Liezel Venter, I am originally from South Africa, I emigrated to New Zealand in 1997. I worked initially at Hawke's Bay Hospital in Hastings, for 5 years, where I have experienced 'high risk' care in pregnancies, labour and birth, and worked alongside obstetric teams. Since 2001, I have been providing LMC (Iow risk) care. I have a New Zealand Bachelors Degree in Nursing, to supplement my South African Diplomas in Midwifery, Psychiatry and Nursing. Pregnancy is a season to celebrate femininity and the beauty of being pregnant. I like to create a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere at my antenatal clinic in Napier. I am passionate about interior design, art, music and fashion, but also passionate about empowering women to have the best experience over the whole scope of their pregnancy and birth. I have partnered with Glenis Paulette, as we share a philosophy of excellence in primary care. We also have joined with Sarah Glass, our postnatal specialist midwife - see both midwives' info on this site.
