Obstetrics & gynecology services
Obstetrics and Gynecology Services at the University Health Centre provide specialist medical care focused on pregnancy, prenatal care, and conditions affecting the female reproductive system. Services are delivered by Dr. Tankel, who primarily sees patients at the UHC for prenatal and gynecologic care, with referrals to an external clinic only in rare circumstances.
Appointments include prenatal consultations, IUD insertions, and follow-up care, with an emphasis on continuity, patient education, and coordinated care throughout pregnancy and after delivery. Access to services, appointment timelines, and available prenatal resources are discussed during booking to ensure patients understand what to expect and receive appropriate support.
