Individual Care
South Community Birth Program provides comprehensive maternity care for pregnant individuals and their families in Vancouver. Located on Kingsway, our clinic offers collaborative care from family physicians, midwives, nurse practitioners, community health nurses, lactation consultants, and doulas.
Patients can choose between Connecting Pregnancy group prenatal care or traditional one-on-one appointments. We also offer postpartum care and drop-in clinics to support families throughout pregnancy and after birth.
Your first appointments are individual visits with a doctor, midwife, or nurse practitioner, where physical exams, prenatal testing, and medical history are reviewed. If you choose individual care rather than group care, you will continue to see your care providers throughout your pregnancy at the clinic.
To support continuity of care, you will typically be assigned two primary care providers, along with a third team member who may step in if needed. We encourage you to book appointments with your assigned providers whenever possible so they can become familiar with your pregnancy journey and individual needs.
Our team works closely together to ensure your records, testing, and birth plans are up to date and communicated clearly among all providers involved in your care.
Because the provider attending your labour and birth may differ depending on who is on call, we offer a “Meet the Team” session one to two months before your due date. This helps you become familiar with our care team and feel more comfortable and supported heading into birth.
