Dr Vicky O’Dwyer is a Consultant Obstetrician and Director of Gynaecology at the Rotunda Hospital. She has a special interest in preventing preterm birth and caring for women with pre-existing medical conditions who are pregnant. She completed a maternal medicine fellowship in 2017 and ran a National preterm prevention clinic before joining the Rotunda in 2019.
She spent 2 years working in the UCD Centre for Human Reproduction exploring the relationship between maternal body composition and caesarean section. She has a medical doctorate and has published extensively on the topic of the caesarean section.
Vicky says “I love my job. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else”. “The most rewarding part is to look after someone through their pregnancy, whether it is straightforward or there are a few bumps in the road, and to see them at the end of the journey both happy and well.”
Vicky is a mum of three children. “I think having been pregnant and having children has made me a better obstetrician”
