What age range do you cover for child health checks?

Our child health checks are designed to support the wellbeing of children from birth through to adolescence. Our health assessments are tailored to the specific needs of each age group, ensuring that your child receives the care and attention necessary for their stage of growth and development.

What can I expect during a child health check?

Our child health checks typically include a through history taken from you and your child (if they are old enough to participate). The doctor will go through their medical history and discuss different aspects of their general health and wellbeing - For example nutrition, sleep, and behaviour. This is followed by a comprehensive physical examination including growth and development assessments. Depending on the child's age, we may also make suggestions for vaccinations, recommend vision and hearing screenings (via external partners), and offer advice on preventive healthcare to keep them happy and healthy in the future.

How often should my child have a health check?

We recommend routine health checks at key developmental stages to monitor and support your child's growth and wellbeing. These typically align with major milestones, such as starting school or entering adolescence, but we can also provide guidance on a schedule that best meets your child's individual needs.

Can I discuss my child's mental health and wellbeing?

Absolutely. Your childs mental health is as important as their physical health, and if you have any concerns or questions it is vital that you ask them during your childs health check. Our doctors will ensure that you and your child feel safe to discuss any concerns you may have about your child's mental health, including stress, anxiety, or behavioural issues. If your child is struggling, we can suggest onward referrals or support if needed.

How are vaccinations handled at your clinic?

What do other parents say about us?

Great experience with Dr Daniel Gordon, 5 year old needed some blood work done, initial try at taking blood with another medical professional elsewhere did not work and was borderline traumatising for the child. Thankfully Dr Gordon was recommended by another parent, he was extremely attentive and has a great attitude towards kids. Everything went super smooth, little one did not even feel the needle and was super happy afterwards. Last but not least having blood taken is considered now as something normal and not painful, rather than scary and traumatic. Very good experience and service, can highly recommend Dr Gordon

We saw Dr Darren Zurawel for an issue my daughter was having with her eyes. He was highly professional and helpful with his advice, and was excellent at engaging with my 1 year old daughter, keeping her happy and occupied whilst he examined her. He really put my mind at ease and I would definitely recommend him. He swiftly sent a referral and followed up to ensure it was received. Very Kind, friendly and knowledgeable - you never hope to return to see a doctor but if the need arises, I will certainly return to Dr Zurawel. Cant recommend him highly enough!

Dr Gordon is the best! He has been our family doctor for over four years now, and he is amazing with both the kids and the adults in the family. We’ve seen him for annual check-ups and on a few occasions for sick visits as well. He knows how to relate everyone at all ages, and always knows how to make everyone feel at ease and reassured. He is attentive, responsive and has always been spot on with his observations. Thank you Dr Gordon!

Daniel was brilliant with our toddler who I brought in to have a vaccination. He was calm and made the environment very relaxing for us. She spent the rest of the day telling people about the nice man Dr Daniel who gave her an injection and a sweetie afterwards! I would highly recommend Daniel, he is a thorough and professional doctor who I feel very confident with as my family’s physician.

I was able to book an appointment very promptly and the process was quick and straightforward. The practice manager was incredibly helpful too. The appointment was for a child’s vaccination.

Dr Daniel Gordon is professional, reliable, thorough and kind. I have taken my son to see him twice when seeking an opinion out of hours. Both times Dr Gordon has responded quickly and assessed him thoroughly. He has a very reassuring manner with both children and parents and I would highly recommend him.
