Dr. Gabriela Glattstein-Young was born right here at St. Paul’s Hospital and grew up in the sunny Okanagan. After completing her post-graduate studies overseas, she returned to Canada to complete medical school in Ontario before moving home to BC to complete her residency in the Indigenous family medicine program. Dr. Glattstein-Young divides her time practising full-scope family medicine in remote communities, as well as addictions medicine and low risk obstetrics in Vancouver. Finding wonder in each new birth, she feels honoured to be a part of her patients’ journeys into parenthood. Dr. Glattstein-Young is thrilled to be part of a hard-working, patient-centred group of maternity physicians at St. Paul’s Hospital and to be delivering babies in the very ward where she was born.
