Doctors
When your child is unwell the GP (general practitioner) is often the first place you turn. Our wonderful GP clinic doctors can:
- provide an overall health check-up
- diagnose and treat short-term illnesses like the flu or a fever
- provide referrals to other children’s health professionals like paediatricians or ENT (ear, nose and throat) specialists.
For more information or to make an appointment visit Doctors.
