Need a Family doctor for my pregnant wife

[RickyRocks]

Hi All,

I am staying on Islington avenue near to Finch and Steeles intersection.

1)We landed in Toronto few days back and looking for family doctor or a gynaecologist for routine check-ups of my pregnant wife.
Kindly refer any good doctor/address near to my place.

2)Should we see a normal doctor first or can we go directly see a gynaecologist? (because I understand that I will have to pay for my pocket as I dont have OHIP)


Thank you in advance.

I can not tell you if they are good. I found them at http://www.cpso.on.ca/docsearch/Default.aspx
I would advise that you phone the gyno first and ask if you need a referral from a GP. Mention that you do not have OHIP and will be paying out of pocket. If they want a referral, you will have to see a GP first.

Thank you so much Leon.. I would call up and figure out soon....

Can you let me know if you know any female gyno in our area....

(Guys, do your homework!)
Go to a community health centre, for example - Black Creek Community Health centre (sorry< i am not allowed to post links) You don't have to have an OHIP

Hi, my name is Carey McGregor and I was born and raised in Canada. My wife, who is from overseas and I were married in Canada, we have a Canadian son (bc of me automatically), we now live in Canada again and my wife is pregnant, without OHIP,,, this is a really shitty situation as you know, there are no options, and no private insurance to cover delivery of a baby in Canada, it's not recommended that m wife leaves Canada, $10-20k to have a baby here,, as you know it's a horror story,,,
I have an appointment with the media this week, a trip to Ottawa is in the works, a big event to get the word out is being planned, an online petition to change legislation is in the works, so now I need victims, people who have been through this and/or people who would rather not go through this crap and continue on with the natural progression of a family and have babies as 'they' seem fit, not the government,, foreign workers in Canada get OHIP and when their family come over, they also get OHIP,, which means they have more rights than me,, that's crap,,, so if you could give me a call or send me an email asap, that would help my family and other families in the future,, as I will fight until there is no more fight, and chances of that happening are slim.

Thank-you for your time,

Carey McGregor
