registerIng Your newborn who is seeing a midwife


Wait, I’m not an active magenta health patient

If that’s the case, Our sincere apologies - we recommend that you look for another clinic to see your newborn at this time. Our new patient registration is currently mostly closed, with the exception of newborns of existing patients. Those patients can continue below.



I’m an active Magenta health patient and my Newborn is seeing a midwife

Your newborn typically does not need to see a physician until they are 2 months old. Nevertheless, it is useful to register your newborn baby with your Magenta Health family doctor as early as possible using the form below.

If there are no specific medical concerns that suggest an earlier appointment is warranted, we'll register your newborn and email you back inviting you to schedule a well baby visit for after the 2 month mark.

If you think an appointment prior to your newborn's 2 month birthday is needed, when completing the form, please indicate as such in the field "preferred appointment time".  Once received, we'll contact you by email and phone to let you know of a date & time for your newborn's appointment.


The above information only applies to newborn babies who have a midwife:

  • If you have an older infant or child that you wish to register as a patient, please go through the standard patient registration process.

  • If you are a current patient who has already filled in the form below, and has received confirmation that your child has been registered, please use the ‘Well Baby’ option on your physician’s booking page in order to book their first visit after Midwife Discharge.


* Although the purpose of this process is for your newborn to become a patient of one of the family physicians at Magenta Health, please note that completing the above form alone does not make your newborn a patient yet.
