Overview

About Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Obstetrics and gynaecology is the combined medical-surgical specialty covering pregnancy, childbirth, and the female reproductive system. O&G specialists manage high-risk pregnancies, perform caesarean sections, treat gynaecological cancers, manage menstrual disorders, and provide fertility services. Subspecialties include maternal-fetal medicine, reproductive endocrinology, urogynaecology, and gynaecological oncology.

The international demand for O&G specialists is driven by the need to provide safe maternity care and expand women's health services. Regional and rural hospitals in particular struggle to maintain 24/7 obstetric coverage, creating opportunities for O&G specialists who can manage a broad clinical scope. Simultaneously, subspecialist positions in maternal-fetal medicine and gynaecological oncology are growing at tertiary centres.

docdocjob helps O&G specialists find international positions that match their clinical interests and lifestyle preferences. Our platform details delivery volumes, operative scope (benign and oncological gynaecology), on-call frequency, access to ultrasound and colposcopy services, and subspecialty development opportunities at each facility.

Market Demand

O&G faces workforce pressures globally as the specialty's demanding on-call requirements affect recruitment and retention. Australia reports persistent vacancies in regional maternity units, offering significant salary incentives for O&G specialists willing to work outside capital cities. The UK has expanded consultant O&G posts by 25% since 2020 but cannot fill them from domestic training alone. Gulf states are investing in women's health services and require O&G consultants across obstetrics, benign gynaecology, and oncology.

Frequently Asked Questions

docdocjob lists O&G positions from maternity units, women's health centres, and hospitals worldwide. Filter by clinical scope (obstetrics-focused, gynaecology-focused, or mixed), delivery volumes, access to subspecialty services (MFM, urogynaecology, oncology), and on-call frequency. Each listing details caesarean section rates, operative gynaecology lists, and whether the position includes private practice rights.
Completed O&G training and board certification are essential. Recognised qualifications include FRANZCOG (Australia/NZ), MRCOG (UK/Ireland), ABOG Board Certification (USA), and Facharzt Frauenheilkunde (Germany). Operative logbooks documenting obstetric (caesarean sections, instrumental deliveries) and gynaecological procedures (laparoscopic surgery, hysteroscopy) are required for specialist pathway assessments.
O&G specialist salaries reflect the demanding on-call nature of the specialty. Australian FRANZCOG consultants earn AUD $300,000-$550,000 (public plus private). UK consultant O&Gs earn GBP 105,000-140,000 in the NHS with substantial private obstetric income. UAE O&G consultants receive tax-free packages of AED 55,000-95,000 monthly. Regional and rural positions typically offer 20-40% salary loadings over metropolitan equivalents.
Australia has critical O&G shortages in regional maternity services and actively recruits internationally through RANZCOG assessment pathways. The UK NHS is running international recruitment campaigns for O&G consultants. New Zealand needs O&G specialists for its district health boards outside Auckland and Wellington. Ireland and the UAE are also actively recruiting. Gulf states are expanding women's health services and need both generalist and subspecialist O&G consultants.
Yes. Obstetrics and gynaecology is on the critical skills shortage lists of Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and Ireland. docdocjob lists only positions with confirmed employer sponsorship. We assist with specialist recognition applications to RANZCOG, RCOG, and equivalent bodies, and help compile operative logbooks in the format required by overseas assessment panels.
