Maternity Services at Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust
Already pregnant? There’s no need to see a GP – you can come direct to us. You can self-refer through our BadgerNet Maternity Notes System or you can call us – for the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital call 01743 261208 or for the Princess Royal Hospital call 01952 565703.
We aim to provide the best possible experience for mothers, babies and families – we want you and your family to be involved in making informed choices about your journey through pregnancy, birth and parenthood. Our aim is to give dignity through kind and compassionate care.
We strive to base our practice on the best available evidence. We aspire to continually make every contact with women and families count towards improving their health and wellbeing.
Please visit our patient information page for the latest patient information and advice.

Please visit the Healthwatch Telford and Wrekin website for the Quarter 4 Feedback Survey prepared by the Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin Maternity Voices Partnership (MVP). The MVP is an independent team made up of service users and their families, as well as local authorities, commissioners, and service providers, who help ensure that the experiences, needs, and ideas of those who use our services are fed into SaTH to enhance the care we offer.
The Feedback Survey offers us valuable insight both into those areas where we are doing well and where we need to do more, as well as being a very useful reference for women and birthing people. If you have used local maternity in the last two years the MVP want to hear from you and you can complete the online survey on the Healthwatch Telford and Wrekin website.
