Here in the back country you can only see an OB/GYN after your 12th week of pregnancy through delivery of the child then you are tossed out of the practice. Coming from a place where I had a regular DR and an OB/GYN since I was a teen I had a little time adjusting to this. My regular DR here handles all the basic things that my GYN would of done in the past, like annuals and paps. Thankfully we have 1 RE in this Provence, she is also a OB/GYN and a surgeon, she must really like school, she has gone back 2 times after her first medical degree. Most of her services probably should not be covered under the Provincial plan but I think the head administrator doesn’t know that most of her patients are seeing her for help in fertility and not other medical problems.
I wonder if the cost between the two would be very different in a private setting. One advantage to a RE or a GYN who specialized in infertility is they should be able to get to the root of the problem quicker and be up to date on possible treatments and or options.
