Cardiac Obstetrics Clinic (COB)

If you have a heart condition and plan on getting pregnant, please schedule an appointment with your cardiologist and health care provider. You can also request a referral to the COB clinic for a pre-pregnancy assessment and counselling.

Our clerical team will reach out via phone or email to coordinate your appointment. They will also provide an itinerary for cardiac testing that will be completed before your COB clinic visit.

COB clinic visits will be booked for in person visits or virtual visits, depending on your cardiac and obstetrical needs.
