Medically necessary consultations, prenatal care, delivery, gynecological surgeries, and diagnostic procedures performed by a licensed Obstetrician and Gynecologist like Dr. Qin are generally covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON when you have a valid referral from your family doctor or another referring physician. Some elective procedures, certain fertility treatments, or non-medically indicated services may not be covered. It's always recommended to confirm specific coverage details with Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) or the clinic.
Do I need a referral from my family doctor to see Dr. Qin, an Obstetrician and Gynecologist?
Yes, for services to be covered by your provincial health plan (Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP)), a referral from your family physician or another specialist is typically required to see an Obstetrician and Gynecologist like Dr. Qin for most consultations and treatments. This ensures coordinated care. Some specific services or clinics (e.g., some sexual health or contraception clinics) might have different access pathways, but for ongoing obstetrical or gynecological care, a referral is standard. Please check with Dr. Qin's office or your referring doctor.
What birth control options can Dr. Qin discuss with me?
Dr. Qin can discuss a wide range of contraceptive options tailored to your individual needs and preferences.

The best option depends on your health, lifestyle, menstrual cycle characteristics, and family planning goals. Dr. Qin will help you make an informed choice.
How often do I need a Pap test, and what is it for?
A Pap test (or Pap smear) is a screening procedure for cervical cancer. It checks for precancerous or cancerous cells on the cervix. Guidelines vary slightly by province but are generally recommended for women starting around age 21-25 (or once sexually active) and continuing every 2-3 years if results are normal. The frequency may change based on your age, medical history (including HPV status), and previous Pap test results. Dr. Qin will advise you on the appropriate screening schedule for your individual circumstances based on current provincial guidelines.
