The Doctor She Never Forgot
For Lauren, returning to North York General to give birth again was not a simple decision.
Four and a half years earlier, the birth of her first daughter at NYG, Harper, had been joyful — but what followed was frightening. Just days after Harper was born in August 2021, Lauren noticed something wasn’t right.

A Second Chance at Happiness
Dr. Satkunaratnam and I discussed my options, and I made the difficult decision to proceed with a hysterectomy. As a woman, it was not an easy choice, but it was the right one for me because it offered hope of finally being free from years of suffering.

Third Time’s a Charm at NYG
Back in 2020, Neo had just arrived in Canada from South Korea when he and his wife welcomed their first child at NYG during the early days of the pandemic. Since then, the hospital has become an important part of their family story — welcoming not one, not two, but now three babies.

“As close to ‘home’ as a hospital can feel.”
After a smooth, unplanned homebirth with her first child, Emily imagined welcoming her second in much the same way.
