Post-Stroke Mood and Anxiety Disorder Clinic

The Post Stroke Mood and Anxiety Disorder Clinic was established to meet the unique needs of post-stroke patients, within 1 year of stroke, who have developed subsequent neuropsychiatric symptoms (including mood, anxiety, irritability, apathy or lability).

Depression and anxiety are common after a stroke and can have negative impacts on recovery and quality of life.
This clinic offers a single psychiatric consultation / assessment with recommendations provided to the General Practitioner (G.P.), for patients within one year of stroke who have developed subsequent mood, anxiety, irritability, apathy or lability. Requests for third party assessments (AISH, WCB, etc.) are not accepted.
