South Riverdale Community Health Centre

The MATCH (Midwifery and Toronto Community Health) Program provides complete prenatal, labour, birth and postpartum care with a team midwives. Midwives are experts in caring for pregnant people and their newborns. The MATCH Team can attend your labour and birth at Michael Garron Hospital, The Toronto Birth Centre, or at home. Midwives provide 24h on-call services to MATCH clients during pregnancy and for the first 6 weeks postpartum with home visits to provide clinical care for you and your baby in the first week postpartum. Midwives also provide well-gynecological care (Pap tests), STI screening, pregnancy testing (urine or blood tests) and counselling related to pregnancy options at the Centre. The midwives at MATCH work closely with Dr. Lisa Bell, who provides transition-related hormone therapy for trans clients. If you have a valid prescription for transition-related testosterone injections, you can see the midwives for your regular injections or for self-injection teaching. LGBTQI2S+ clients can access preconception, pregnancy, labour, birth and postpartum care from a multidisciplinary team in a multi-use clinic, which protects your anonymity in the waiting room. We offer appointments at South Riverdale Community Health Centre most days and Thursday mornings at Regent Park Community Health Centre.
