Family Care

FAMILY CARE

Family practice is the heart of who we are. We are at the births of our newest patients and at the side of our elderly patients in their last days and all the life stages in between. We care for you and your family and help navigate the complexities of the health care system. Understanding your health in the setting of your life history and family is the art of medicine.

PREGNANCY CARE

Lexitor is known for its inclusive and caring approach to maternity and women’s care. Our families tell us they feel valued, informed, and safe throughout their pregnancy, delivery, and the post-partum period. We provide group prenatal visits and newborn baby groups to connect new parents. We walk with you through this precious time for your family.

  • Family doctors are experts in pregnancy care. Our focus is on the health and wellness of mother, baby and partner.
  • No referral is required. If you are pregnant, please inform our staff when you are booking.
  • If you do not have a family doctor, we have been successful at connecting patients with family doctors to continue caring for your baby and family.
