LOW RISK OBSTERICAL PROGRAM
(Deliveries currently not available in Three Hills)
The physicians of Kneehill Medical Clinic in Three Hills would like to announce that we are still actively accepting NEW prenatal patients up until the 32 week mark. We provide care for women in their first or subsequent pregnancies, but are currently not able to do deliveries at Three Hills Health Centre. Our team will help you arrange care for the remaining weeks and delivery.
If your pregnancy becomes complicated, we can provide shared care with an obstetrician, but you would ultimately deliver in a larger center. If, however, your pregnancy remains lowrisk we would welcome you to deliver at the Three Hills Health Centre!
Here are a few of the benefits of delivering with our team:
· No pressure for discharge. This allows you to decide if you require extra time to recover from your delivery &/or develop your breastfeeding skills.
· Private postpartum room which allows for better bonding & resting. ·
Flexibility with the number of support people or visitors in the delivery &/or postpartum period.
If you require a Cesarean section you will be sent to Olds, Drumheller or Red Deer (depending on patient choice & availability).
Please call the Kneehill Medical Clinic @ (403) 443-5522 to book your first prenatal with one of our doctors.
