Ottawa Regional Adult Bleeding Disorders Program

If you need surgery or another invasive procedure, we will help ensure you receive the right therapy so the procedure can be done safely. Please remember that surgery should take place at the hospital affiliated with your Treatment Centre. For patients in North-Eastern Ontario, this is The Ottawa Hospital.

It is important to tell us about any scheduled procedures—such as surgery, dental work, biopsy, or colonoscopy—as soon as you know the date. This helps us coordinate your care, especially if your doctor does not contact us directly.

We offer a combined clinic for women who experience gynecologic bleeding symptoms. In this clinic, a gynecologist, hematologist and nurses work together to provide consultation and care tailored to your needs. 

If you are planning a pregnancy or are currently pregnant, please let us know as soon as possible. We will check your coagulation factor levels and provide recommendations to your obstetrician. This ensures safe management during labour, delivery and postpartum care.
