General Paediatrics

The Department of General Paediatrics is often described as a “vital cog in the wheel..”, because it acts as the lynchpin that links the other departments which offer treatments specific systems in the body. Being the sentries of patient contact, the department act as an identifying unit for the direction of investigations, referral and treatment options.

We are staffed by many consultants who run clinics throughout the day, and are supported well by emergency room personnel. The whole Paediatric Department and sub specialties pride themselves in their ability to handle any conceivable disease process. This is possible in view of excellent camaraderie among the specialists and a wholesome approach to get to the bottom of the problem.

The department also provides appropriate advice on the timing of vaccinations and dedicated, well trained nurses provide the vaccination services.
