Pediatric Consultation Centre (PCC)

We see patients and their families in the Ambulatory Care Clinic on the second-floor, B wing of the MCH. We also see patients at our Outreach Clinic at the Lakeshore General Hospital, which includes a Consultation Clinic, an Asthma Clinic and an Allergy Clinic. In addition, there is a very specialized clinic for autistic children with medical problems. 

In addition to our general consulting clinics, the PCC also includes specialized clinics such as the Multicultural clinic, which offers general pediatric assessments for refugee and immigrant children. There is also a Residents Continuity Clinic (RCC) where pediatric residents provide ongoing, primary care for a select group of patients under the guidance of PCC pediatricians. 

The Montreal Children’s Hospital Pediatric Consultation Centre is staffed by experienced, general consultant pediatricians.

The PCC is a large teaching centre for general pediatrics. We offer teaching in general pediatrics to family resident trainees, dermatology residents, as well as core and elective medical students who are doing their clerkship. Approximately 105 trainees per year do their rotation in the PCC.

Training includes the Residents Continuity Clinic (RCC), which provides residents with experience in continuity of care. The residents who follow these patients and families review cases with the PCC pediatricians. 

As of October 24^th, 2016, requests for consultation in general pediatrics must be sent to the Centre de repartiment des services (CRDS). The CRDS was created to give patients improved access to specialized services while assisting family physicians with specialized service referrals.
