Welcome to the Center for Pediatric Excellence

At the Center for Pediatric Excellence, the Clinicians see patients and their families for diagnoses and treatment of a variety of mental health, behavioural and developmental disorders. We have medical, psychology, and occupational therapy services. Our psychology staff can treat across the lifespan. Our vision is to help each individual reach their potential by providing high quality, evidence based multidisciplinary behavioural, developmental and mental health care.

The medical team led by Dr. van Stralen requires a referral from the family doctor who remains the primary contact for the family. Dr. van Stralen will triage all referrals and may make recommendations for other services while you wait for a medical appointment. Psychology, occupational therapy and educational advocacy services can be booked without a referral from you family doctor.  Psychology and occupational therapy services may be covered by extended health care benefit insurance.
