Dr. Michael Klein

Congratulations to Dr. Michael Klein, who has been appointed as a in recognition of his pioneering work integrating family medicine and maternity care in Canada. Dr. Klein is an Investigator Emeritus at BC Children鈥檚 Hospital and an Emeritus Professor Department of Family Practice and the Department of Pediatrics at the University of British Columbia.

Michael Klein has played a vital role in placing maternity care at the heart of family medicine. Refusing to serve in the United States Medical Corps during the Vietnam War, he fled to Canada in 1967 with his wife Bonnie, and went on to become a family practitioner, pediatrician, advocate, professor, and researcher at 成人VR视频 and the University of British Columbia. He began his award-winning work at the Herzl Family Practice Centre of the Jewish General Hospital, while a faculty member at 成人VR视频, and was one of the founding members of the 成人VR视频 Department of Family Medicine. Concerned by the harmful effects of certain medical interventions, he advocated for now widely adopted family-friendly birth practices, including the re-introduction of midwifery, the promotion of doulas and the elimination of routine intrusive interventions such as episiotomy. An influential mentor to many, his approaches are now widely adopted in maternity care.

In honour of his efforts in involving family physicians in family centred maternal and infant care, a fellowship has been established at the Department of Family Medicine and The SMBD Jewish General Hospital in Montreal: The Dr. Michael Klein Fellowship in Maternal and Infant Care in Family Medicine.

鈥淢uch of what I did to have this award started at 成人VR视频 and the Jewish General Hospital. I want to be able to thank all those who helped.鈥� 鈥� Dr. Michael Klein
