A woman whose daughter was born in critical distress after a traumatic labour is demanding answers from the Queanbeyan Hospital.

NSW Health says four general practice obstetricians recently walked off the job, but locum doctors have been brought in to replace them.

Authorities have been called in to make recommendations to improve the maternity service.
