The West Carleton Family Health Team has a group of family doctors who love providing obstetrical care (care during your pregnancy and delivery). For the majority of your pregnancy, you will be looked after by one of the following physicians, but will have the opportunity to meet them all:
Dr. Lisa Rosenkrantz MD, CCFP, FCFP Dr. Michelle Lawler BA (hon.), MD, CCFP, FCFP Dr. Ewa Ciechanska MD, CCFP Dr.Maria Merziotis, BSc, MD, CCFP
We provide care to patients who already have a family physician in the community as well as those who do not. If you currently have a family physician, we will provide care throughout your pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum period. Afterwards, you will be returned to the care of your family physician. We accept referrals for new prenatal patients from other family doctors and obstetricians, as well as providing service to our own patients. If you do not currently have a family physician, you and your baby may request to become patients of the West Carleton Family Health Team. Please call our office medical reception (613-839-3271) and request an obstetrical appointment.
Patient Health Portal The West Carleton Family Health Team has a Patient Health Portal. The portal is an innovative and secure communications platform for you to receive and review your health information. Whether you are a patient registered with the WCFHT or you are only receiving prenatal care with us, you will have access to the portal while under the care of our doctors. The portal allows you to: receive messages from your health care provider, view and cancel upcoming appointments and edit demographic information. The app associated with the portal (UpPatient App) also allows you to request prescription refills virtually.
The Patient Portal is a service offered free of charge to all WCFHT patients.
