The Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Outpatient Clinic is one part of the range of rehabilitation services offered at by The Ottawa Hospital Rehabilitation Centre (TOHRC), specializing in cognitive and physical rehabilitation. This service offers consultation with physiatrist Dr. Shawn Marshall, whose assessment will determine individual suitability for specific programs, therapies, classes and group sessions.

The ABI Outpatient Clinic provides treatment, support, training and education to those with acquired brain injury, as well as their family and caregivers. In the interest of reintegrating and maintaining patients in their own community, the clinic can also offer referrals to community-based rehabilitation services.

The Outpatient Clinic is a key support and information resource for both family physicians and allied health-care providers.
