Has any Mamas delivered in Brampton Civic hospital or Humber River and how was the experience?

I am 16 weeks and need a referral to an OB.. I live in Brampton however I'm wondering if driving a bit further would be a good idea if the service may be the same..also if you happen to know a great OB at either please include their names. It would be greatly appreciated 🙂

I don't have personal experience at Brampton hospital but I know I haven't heard great things. I delivered at credit valley in Mississauga and had an excellent experience.

I delivered at Brampton civic and it wasn’t that bad!! My ObGYN was Vidia Persad and she is the head of the OB dept at Brampton Civic

I Delivered in Brampton civic 4 months ago and had a greate experience.my OB was dr Quinn Lee

I haven’t heard good things about Brampton civic but have you consider a midwife they are also good at labour and delivery they do hospital and home birth

I’m due in July, and the only hospital my midwife delivers at is Brampton Civic, so I’m set to be there. I spoke to as many women as I knew that also gave birth there and majority of them had only good things to say, it was only one that had a horrible experience and she didn’t elaborate on why. My family doc also explained to me that Brampton Civics bad rep comes from their emergency dept and that the labour and delivery ward is totally separate and would be better. But ultimately you need to make the choice that makes u most comfortable. I know the only thing that eased my mind about choosing Brampton Civic was knowing I’d be bringing my mum and husband there as support people who would 100% advocate for me. So just make sure you have a solid team of people in ur corner and hopefully everything will work out fine 💕

I was at humber river and I liked it. Nice helpful staff, private recovery room with a pull out couch for your partner, big bathroom, better than I expected food selection or you can buy food from the food court downstairs. No wifi but had netflix app on the computer which was nice when I was bored. I was in a program to stay there for 5 days and 5 nights so I could adjust to having baby (was mental health related so had my psychiatrist come check on me during my stay) Lactation specialists are there to help if you need, my breasts ended up engorged and a nurse helped me express the milk out when I didn't know what to do. I had bad anxiety when offered an epidural and they had the person that does it come in the delivery room and explain everything to me to put me at ease, he was also quite funny with his jokes to lighten up the mood. I went still during covid and they allowed 2 people in the delivery room with me, I'm not sure how it is now but I'll be going there again this year.

I delivered my first at Brampton civic 8 years ago but I had a midwife (was not a fan of my OB/GYN he was rude and dismissive), and I had a good experience there
