Paediatrics

Overview

Paediatricians provide expert care for children from infancy to adolescence. You might seek a paediatrician for your child’s general wellness or to investigate a specific health concern. Some paediatrics services we offer include health assessments, developmental screenings, nutritional guidance, and asthma care.

What Is a Private Paediatrician?

A private paediatrician is a medical expert specialising in children’s health, from infancy to adolescence. Our paediatrics team provides personalised care, focusing on physical, emotional, and developmental needs. Opting for a private paediatrician ensures comprehensive care for your child, fostering long-term health and wellbeing.

Why Might You Need a Private Paediatrician?

You might seek a private paediatrician for several key reasons. Firstly, if your child is experiencing specific health issues or symptoms that require specialised attention, a paediatrician’s focused expertise in children’s health is invaluable. They are adept at diagnosing and treating a wide range of illnesses, from common ailments like sore throats to more complex chronic conditions.

Additionally, a private paediatrician offers the benefit of more personalised care. This means shorter waiting times for appointments, longer consultation periods, and a more tailored approach to your child’s needs.

How Are Paediatric Conditions Diagnosed?

  • Physical examinations
  • Laboratory tests (e.g., blood tests)
  • Imaging scans (e.g., X-rays, ultrasounds)
