My name is Razieh Hezarvand (Mojdeh). I have been a midwife since 2014, first practicing in Iran across hospitals, community clinics, and my own private practice. After moving to Canada in 2022, I worked as a Medical Office Assistant before completing the Internationally Educated Midwives Bridging Program at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in 2025. Supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum is my honor. Delighted to be part of the Carnation Midwifery Clinic team.
