Best OBGYNs in Calgary?

I just found out that I’m currently pregnant with baby #2 (yay!!) which means i’m going to need to be on the hunt for an OBGYN. my last OBGYN experience wasn’t great and i didn’t get along with her whatsoever, so i’d really like to change that this time. i’d especially love to find an OB who i can develop an actual bond with leading up to my birthing experience, and who i don’t have to feel anxious talking to. i live in the SW so would love to keep it in that region, though may be willing to travel a little bit. please let me know any suggestions you may have and your experiences with different OBGYNS<333

Have you considered a midwife ?

@Amy i’d honestly love to have a midwife, but unfortunately we are fairly low income and couldn’t afford it.

Midwives are now covered by Alberta healthcare and I would highly suggest you go that route if you’re low risk. I absolutely love our midwife.

@Amanda Oohh i might just check it out then cause id love to go the midwife route this time around!! Ill look into it for sure<33

@Caidy apply asap! They are usually very busy! Start looking online and filling forms for midwifery :)

Dr Wynne Leong! I had her as a fluke (I was with midwives, and for the actual show they had to transfer my care to her). Everyone I’ve talked to about OB’s and when I’ve mentioned Dr. Leong they’ve talked very highly of her - plus my experience with her was very positive.

If you’re even the slightest bit curious about having a midwife- apply to each and every clinic you’re open to travelling to for the best outcome at getting a call back as they fill up quick. I was with briar hill midwives for both of my pregnancies and they were great ☺️ for maternity clinics I’ve heard good things about Riley park, I believe they’re self referral https://www.alberta-midwives.ca/request-care Congratulations! 💗

Also check out Keramiko, the Alex, and/or Families Matter SYP program! They’re awesome supports for young mamas that I’d highly recommend! (I’ve been to keramiko and was in the SYP program, a mama friend had a birth doula for free through the Alex and said it was great)

Dr. Sun at the Sunnyside office delivered J, and the people who worked with me there during my pregnancy were really awesome. I was SW too before I moved!
