Baby and Child Health

As UK trained GPs we see babies and children from day 1 for all their health needs.

This includes regular baby and child health check-ups, and all their routine vaccinations.

 

Having a newborn can be incredibly daunting (as well as rewarding) but we are here to help with any and every issue along the way:

Acute illness and problems

  • Coughs, colds, sore throats and ear infections

  • Skin rashes, infections and other dermatology concerns

  • Urinary tract infections

  • Abdominal pains and digestive issues, like suspected cows milk protein allergies

  • General fatigue and not thriving


Regular Check-Ups

  • Newborn and 6-8 week checks including heart, abdominal and eye checks, plus weight/length and general review of their progress to date

  • Annual health checks to assess development height and weight


Childhood vaccinations

  • Routine vaccinations starting from 8 weeks through to teenage years

  • We usually follow the UK guidance - found here - but can follow other countries’ guidance such as the CDC guidance of USA

  • Non-standard vaccinations also available such as Chickenpox, Tuberculosis (BCG), Tick-borne encephalitis

  • More info on the full range of childhood vaccines we cover can be found on our Vaccinations page

  • Travel vaccines also available for children, and more information can be found on our Travel Clinic page

Appointment lengths required

We usually recommend a standard 30 minute appointment for routine childhood vaccinations, or if there is a health check up taking place.

For appointments where there is both a routine check up and vaccinations, a 60 minute appointment is required.
