We have strong professional links with the Mater Mother’s Hospital and Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in Brisbane and can arrange referral to these hospitals if required.
We communicate regularly and clearly with your family doctor, generally sending him or her a letter summarizing your child’s current health issues and status after each visit.
Sunshine Coast Paediatrics has strong links with children’s psychology, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech pathology services within our region.
The following websites are recommended by sunshine Coast Paediatrics as being of a high standard and generally providing quality information about child health.
