  • AIDS/HIV

  • Conditions that cause inflammation, like hepatitis, encephalitis, or meningitis

  • Lyme disease and other parasite-borne diseases

  • Fever that lasts for a long time or recurs

  • The MRSA bug (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus)

  • Infections of the respiratory system like tuberculosis and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)

  • Skincare.

  • Haematology disorders in kids.

  • Oncology care for kids.

  • Cystic fibrosis and paediatric pulmonology.

  • Services for kids with respiratory problems.

Children aren't just little adults. They have unique medical needs because their bodies are growing. Their concerns are usually expressed differently than adults. Sometimes they can't answer medical questions, and they can't be patient and cooperative. Paediatric infectious disease specialists know how to make kids feel relaxed and cooperative while they're being examined and treated. Children's infectious diseases are quite different from those of adults, so paediatric infectious disease specialists know the unique signs, symptoms, treatments, and prognosis. 

You can be sure that your child will get the best care if your paediatrician recommends a paediatric infectious diseases specialist.

Infection diagnosis

Infectious diseases spread quickly because they're highly contagious. Paediatric infectious disease medical specialists keep children healthy by containing the spread. Physical exams and medical histories are the most important diagnostic tools. If we need more information about what's causing your child's symptoms, we'll ask you or someone else in your family.
