DescriptionMcMaster Children's Hospital is the Regional Centre for Pediatric Eating Disorders for Central South. Our program provides comprehensive, multidisciplinary assessment for all new patients with eating problems. We see a range of eating problems from classic anorexia nervosa to extreme selective eating. Families and care-givers are integral to the treatment process. We primarily offer family- based treatment (FBT) informed by the Maudsley Model. 
 
The program was established 10 years ago and we assess over 100 new patients per year. We have the largest out-patient eating disorder program in Ontario. 
 
We provide care to children and adolescents with eating disorders in a variety of settings including: 
 
In-patient 
Out-patient 
Day-treament - planned start date Spring 2012 
 
 
 
Further information on eating disorders is available from the National Eating Disorders Information Centre at 1866 NEDIC-20 or www.nedic.ca
