Obstetrics & maternity
Mr Orabi has more than twenty years' experience in obstetric care across the UK, Middle East and Africa, including high-risk pregnancies, twin deliveries, planned and emergency caesarean section, and complex postnatal care. He is part of the consultant team at Jersey General Hospital.
Caesarean section
Whether your caesarean is planned weeks ahead or needed urgently in labour, the operation is performed with the same focus on safety, communication and recovery.
A planned caesarean is usually done from 39 weeks for medical or personal reasons: a breech baby, a low-lying placenta, pre-eclampsia, or an informed maternal choice. Mr Orabi takes time to talk through the operation in advance: what happens on the day, anaesthesia options, recovery, and future birth planning.
An emergency caesarean is done where vaginal birth becomes unsafe (for example, where the baby is not coping with labour, where there is heavy bleeding, or where labour is not progressing safely). Mr Orabi has performed thousands of emergency caesareans across multiple health systems and is one of the consultants on the Jersey on-call rota.
Pregnancy care
An early pregnancy scan is usually the first ultrasound after a pregnancy is confirmed. It confirms the pregnancy is in the right place, checks how many babies you are carrying, investigates any early bleeding, and provides an accurate estimated due date. From around six weeks, the scan can usually detect a fetal heartbeat.
For private patients, Mr Orabi can offer a personalised maternity care plan: a fuller, continuity-of-care model where you see the same consultant throughout your pregnancy, with planned scans, growth monitoring, and a delivery plan tailored to your needs.
Twin pregnancy needs closer monitoring than a single pregnancy: more scans, more careful planning, and a clear delivery plan well before the due date. Mr Orabi has extensive experience caring for twin pregnancies and supporting families through both vaginal and Caesarean twin deliveries.
Postnatal review
The weeks after birth deserve their own appointment focused on you, not just the baby. A postnatal review covers physical recovery, scar healing, pelvic floor, bleeding, mood and contraception. Where useful, Mr Orabi will arrange referral to women's health physiotherapy or counselling support.

Patient testimonials
"Mr Orabi delivered our twins, and we could not have asked for a better doctor. His calm manner, kindness and clear explanations made us feel safe throughout the whole experience. His surgical skill and compassionate care meant I recovered quickly, and our babies arrived safely. We will always be grateful."
"I arrived at hospital with severe bleeding late in pregnancy and was terrified. Mr Orabi acted immediately and performed an emergency Caesarean section that saved both me and my baby. His quick decision-making, professionalism and reassurance during such a frightening time meant everything to us."
