If you have a family physician/primary care provider please call or
meet with them to discuss your care options. You may ask to be referred
to our clinic. You may be cared for your primary care provider for up to
24 weeks of your pregnancy. Please request that they make an early PIPC referral to
reserve your spot at our clinic.
If you do not have a Family Physician/Nurse Practitioner, you may call our clinic directly
to book an appointment. If you are unsure of your last normal menstrual period date you will
require a dating ultrasound. You may need to seek an appointment with the nearest walk in
clinic to discuss booking a dating ultrasound.
What to Expect: We take a detailed personal history and do an Ontario Antenatal Record, a standard of care. At every appointment we check a urine sample, weight and blood pressure. Laboratory
and ultrasound investigations may be initiated. This is a comprehensive assessment and may
take a full hour.
To Make your First Appointment:
Please make your next appointment before leaving PIPC.
In general appointments with a Doctor are every 4 weeks until 28 weeks of pregnancy then every 2 weeks until 35 weeks, then every week until delivery. You may make appointments with other team members at any time.
Patients are asked to please arrive 5-10 minutes prior to their booked appointment time in order to help us stay
on time. You will always need to provide a urine sample on arrival.
Fee for Missed Appointments $25.00
