Dr Katarzyna Plaza

We are pleased to welcome Dr Katarzyna Plaza to the Halton community. Dr Plaza s a General Internist and Obstetrical Internist, and has recently opened practice in Oakville. She sees referrals for general internal medicine, medical disorders in pregnancy (complex medical patients considering pregnancy, medical problems that arise during pregnancy and the postpartum period) and peri-operative consults for complex medical patients who need to be cleared for surgery by internal medicine, among other common internal medicine issues.

What is your clinical area of interest?

I’m a General Internist and an Obstetrical Internist. I see referrals for general internal medicine, medical disorders in pregnancy (complex medical patients considering pregnancy, medical problems that arise during pregnancy and the postpartum period) and peri-operative consults for complex medical patients who need to be cleared for surgery by internal medicine. I also follow patients for poorly controlled hypertension, diabetes, lipid disorders, obesity/weight management etc.

I completed my training in Western Canada having done my internal medicine residency and General Internal Medicine fellowship at the University of Saskatchewan and Obstetrical Medicine fellowship at the University of British Columbia. After working for several years purely in the hospital setting, last year I decided to start an outpatient clinic in my hometown of Oakville.
