Congratulations on your pregnancy! This is the start of an exciting journey!

My name is Jiawen Fan, known as Gail. I am from mainland China. I feel honoured and privileged to be a kiwi midwife. Thank you for getting me involved in this special journey with you and your whanau. I will work with you in a partnership to achieve the pregnancy and the birth that you want, meanwhile maintaining safe midwifery practice.

I recently moved down to Christchurch. I am currently working in the Christchurch Women's Hospital. I have been working as a midwife at Waikato Hospital for 8 years, rotating among delivery suite, women's assessment unit and antenatal/postnatal ward. I also worked as a self-employed midwife in Waikato region in the past year with minimal caseloads. I had been working as a registered nurse in China for 10 years before I became a midwife in New Zealand. I was specialised in medical/surgical and congenital cardiac surgical field.

Please feel free to send me an email via gailmidwife01@gmail.com about my availability. I will reply your enquiry ASAP between Monday and Friday 0900 to 1700.
