As of March 21, 2025, MGH’s main entrance on Coxwell Avenue is closed as the next phase of our redevelopment project begins. Patients and visitors can use the new temporary main entrance on Sammon Avenue between Coxwell Avenue and Knight Street. View our campus map.
Our Family Birthing Centre (FBC) has bright and spacious labour and delivery suites to accommodate and support you during labour and birth. Our staff always strive to provide culturally sensitive care during your stay and are committed to meeting your birthing wishes and desires.
Our FBC Team at Michael Garron Hospital (MGH) includes highly trained obstetricians, midwives, family doctors, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, dieticians, certified childbirth educators and lactation consultants. Given our affiliation with the University of Toronto and other academic institutions, your care team may also involve students and learners.
One of the first choices you will need to make is who will provide your prenatal care. Your choices include:
We have 12 obstetricians on staff with diverse and specialized skills to provide evidence-based care for our patients. They provide family- and patient-centered care for low-risk births, as well as for patients with health complications or who are facing high-risk situations. They provide prenatal, labour, childbirth and postnatal care, as well as other reproductive health care such as preconceptional counselling, fertility, contraceptive planning and gynaecological care. Please call the individual physician’s community office directly for pregnancy care or have your family physician fax a referral to their office.
Family practice obstetricians are family physicians who specialize in obstetrics care for pregnant individuals with low-risk pregnancies, but who are also trained to manage common health problems along the way. We apply a primary care lens to the pregnancy, labour and the postpartum period, which allows us to provide holistic care to you as a whole person. We see prenatal patients across multiple clinics in East York. Please visit our Family Practice Obstetrics Group webpage for information on how to refer (including self-referral).
We have 26 midwives who work out of The Midwives' Clinic of East York-Don Mills and six midwives who work out of the MATCH (Midwifery and Toronto Community Health) Program at South Riverdale Community Health Centre. Midwives are free in Ontario, even if you do not have OHIP.
