Registering my Newborn at Bridgepoint Family Health Team

I’m not an active Bridgepoint Family Health Team patient…

Please look for another clinic to see your newborn at this time. We are not able to accept new patients at this time.

I DO NOT HAVE A MIDWIFE

Before you and your newborn baby are discharged from the hospital, you should receive instructions on when you need to bring your newborn in for his/her first check-up with the doctor.  This is usually within 48-72 hours of hospital discharge.  

If you wish to register your newborn baby with your Bridgepoint Family Health Team physician, call the clinic. You'll need to register your newborn for OHIP first.

I HAVE A MIDWIFE

If you have a midwife, your newborn typically does not need to see a physician until they are two months old. Nevertheless, it is useful to register your newborn baby with your Bridgepoint Family Health Team physician as early as possible by calling the clinic.

Please ensure that you bring any records from your midwife to your appointment with your physician.
