Our approach to paediatrics
At London Medical, we are dedicated to your child’s total health and well-being. Our patients are not just another number in a time-strapped system. Our consultant paediatricians take a holistic approach that combines pathology and wellness. They will take the time to get to know your child by looking at their medical indicators and nutritional status, diet, birth history, family history and behaviour. All these factors are essential in assessing your child’s health and determining a personalised treatment plan for them.
Visiting the paediatrician with your baby can be stressful, but London Medical isn’t your typical hospital setting. Our centrally located London clinic features top-notch paediatric staff, state-of-the-art facilities and an in-house pharmacy — all under one roof. Our calm and caring environment will set you at ease, and our friendly staff will ensure you feel supported throughout your visit.
