Description:

The Division of Adolescent Medicine is committed to providing high quality, developmentally-appropriate clinical care to teens and their families through our specialty teen clinic programs, which include our AMCS (Adolescent Medicine Consult Service), Eating Disorders Program, Transgender Youth Clinic (with Endocrinology), The Young Families Program for teen-led families, and our Substance Abuse Program. Additionally, we partner with the Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology Program to run a Complex Contraception Clinic. We are available anywhere in the hospital that teenagers can be found, and regularly attend Lupus, STOMP (weight management), Sickle Cell, Kidney Transplant, and Heart Transplant clinics. This rich clinical service provides a breadth and depth of learning experiences which are foundational to our subspecialty training program. These learning experiences are further enhanced with community experiences in college health, adolescent psychiatry, sports medicine and community Adolescent Medicine consultation clinics. The Division of Adolescent Medicine provides training and education for physicians, nurses and nurse practitioners, social workers, psychologists, dieticians and others about adolescent development and health care. We have an active research program that seeks to advance the care of adolescents in Canada and around the world.
