Acute Paediatric Injury Clinic

To cater for children and adolescents I run regular Acute Paediatric Injury Clinics.

In my practice we keep specific appointments for urgent paediatric injuries so that patients can be seen urgently and on the road to recovery quickly.

The Acute Paediatric Injury Clinic runs several afternoons every week.

Injury on the weekend? See you Monday afternoon!

Patients will receive:

• Early assessment of their injury
• Professional injury management to facilitate an early return to sport or activities
• X-Rays, MRI scans and other diagnostic tests as required

Acute Paediatric Injury Patients

Patients suitable for this clinic are those who have:

• A recent acute injury (sporting or recreational activities)
• Been advised by their GP that immediate attention is required.
• Attended an Emergency Dept and been told further management is required.
