CMC Care during COVID Pandemic
If you are new to our clinic Welcome! We look forward to supporting you and your family during your pregnancy, labour and postpartum period.
Due to the COVID situation, we have modified the way we are caring for patients. Our goal is to continue to provide excellent and safe maternity care while minimizing potential exposures for our patients (and wider community). Please know that if we have booked you for a telehealth/phone appointment, that we are open to discussing an in person visit if you feel it is important. We realize this is a stressful time and please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns. Below is a general guide for what you can expect for timing of visits. It will change based on individual pregnancy issues and questions.
