Divisions
CLINICAL SERVICE
Obstetrics and gynecology services in the city of Hamilton are divided between three sites: the McMaster University Medical Centre (MUMC), the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Center (JCC) — which are both part of Hamilton Health Sciences (HHS) — and St. Joseph’s Healthcare (SJH). There are clinical chief positions for each HHS and SJH, both of whom work closely and on an ongoing basis with the department chair around all faculty issues.
There are four clinical divisions, a group of generalists, a basic science division and the midwifery program within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology:
