Overview
Medical specialists at Grandview Kids offer consultation, assessment, and diagnosis services. They advocate and refer to additional medical specialist services, as needed.
Grandview Kids’ medical specialists DO NOT provide primary care. Instead, they work closely with your family physician.

Referral Process – How to Access Grandview Kids’ Medical Services and Supports
A completed Grandview Kids Referral Form will be required to access Medical Services and other services requested to meet your child’s current developmental needs. All Medical Services referrals must be completed by a physician. Paediatricians and primary care physicians are encouraged to submit an Oceans eReferral.
Oceans eReferral digitizes the paper-based fax referral process of requesting care, service and support from a healthcare provider. The Ocean eReferral is available to health service providers in Ontario free of charge, as part of the Ontario Ministry of Health funded Ontario eServices Program. This new process improves the efficiency of the referral process.

Our team will be pleased to answer your questions and connect your child with the appropriate services to meet their needs.
