We've pulled together the official government resources on how to find a family doctor for each province and territory in Canada
If you're looking, these are worth a try. If nothing else, it registers the demand.

“Women’s health has been critically underserved by a failure to look beyond women’s sexual & reproductive systems to consider their broader health needs. In almost every country in the world, noncomm diseases are the leading causes of death for women.”💥 nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic.
It will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.

Even uncertain results from genomic autopsy can provide opp'tunities for reducing risk in subequent pregnancies... Prof Chris Barnett tells us autopsy (#placenta) is a rich area for gene discovery. Unexplained stillbirths remain a key challenge. #stillbirthforum2023

You are still at risk for #preeclampsia for up to 6 weeks postpartum. Even if your pregnancy and delivery was "normal" and without any complications. #PostpartumPreeclampsia can happen to any mom during any initial postpartum period.
