All of our patients are invited to attend “Meet the Doctors Night,” which is held every few months. This event provides you with another opportunity to prepare for birth and to meet the doctors on our team.
At Meet the Doctors Night, we will get to know each other while talking about labour, birth, and the newborn period.
We encourage questions, discussion,and story telling. We hope that all of our patients will attend with their partners and support people.
Please note: the hospital entrance off Heather Street & 29th Avenue is now closed (see below for map).
