If your child needs care for an urgent but non-life threatening health issue, we encourage you to review options for care in the community. If you need to come to our Emergency Department, please come prepared by reading the information available on our Emergency Department webpage.
The Paediatrics Department at Michael Garron Hospital (MGH) provides neonatal and paediatric services for East Toronto’s diverse population. We are an expert group of paediatricians, neonatologists, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, speech-language pathologists, social workers, lactation consultants and a Child Life Specialist providing comprehensive care to children from birth to 18 years of age and their families.
Our department and team are affiliated with the University of Toronto. We are a designated site for the paediatric training of residents and medical students and provide placements to many trainees in paediatrics, family practice medicine, nursing and other disciplines. We actively engage in research and quality improvement projects in the area of paediatrics.
We have strong links with The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and have implemented many initiatives in partnership with this organization. In addition, MGH is a proud member of Kids Health Alliance (KHA), a network of partners committed to advancing excellence and expertise in paediatric care. KHA is founded by SickKids, Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital and the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO).
We provide many supports to help make the patient and family stay a little easier. We provide family-centered care and involve parents and other family members as partners in care.
