The Edmonton West Primary Care Network partners with the West Edmonton Low Risk Obstetric Clinic to conveniently offer prenatal and postnatal care to low-risk maternity patients within the same building as the EWPCN. The team is made up of experienced family physicians who specialize in obstetrics and deliver babies at the Misericordia Community Hospital.
As an expectant mother, you experience physical and emotional changes. It is important that you understand these changes and get the best maternity care possible – for the health of both you and your baby.
Talk to your family physician about a referral to our clinic. Once you join our clinic, you will receive your pre- and postnatal care from us. We will keep your family physician updated so they can continue to give you high quality care after your baby is born. Patients are also welcome to self-refer.
If you do not have a family doctor, contact us directly at 780-443-7478
