The Royal Hospital for Women has been one of Australia's foremost specialist hospitals for women and babies, since its early beginnings as New South Wales first 'lying-in' hospital for women in 1820.

The main areas of specialisation include breast care, gynaecology, gynaecological oncology, maternity, maternal fetal medicine, menopause, newborn  intensive care and reproductive medicine.

The Royal Hospital for Women acknowledges the Bidjigal people, who are the traditional custodians of the land upon which this hospital is located. As the only dedicated women’s hospital in NSW we recognise the Aboriginal women who have birthed and lived on this land and commit to the ongoing provision of ‘Birthing on Country’ services.
