Newborn and Paediatric Consultation
Often families find standard or even long appointments are not enough time to thoroughly address particular concerns for their little ones. Dr Lauren Healy is offering these longer appointments as way to address specific concerns parents may have for themselves or their children, without feeling rushed.
