Parent testimonials

Our children always leave with smiles on their faces 💖

“Dr Vinola Naidoo is the best doctor for children. I would go as far as saying she is a Godsend. I have been taking my son to her since he was born, and he is now 7 years old. There are so many things I can say about her. She goes out of her way for her patients. A lot of times when my son is sick, I can message her rooms and I know for sure that she will get back to me in between the patients. She makes the babies feel comfortable. Her love for kids is sooo heartwarming. Even after consulting, she would call tomorrow to check up on you. Not a lot of doctors do that. Her dedication is out of this world. I have never seen her in a bad mood. Always smiling and welcoming. You will never regret taking your little ones to her.”

FAQs

Here are answers to common questions about our practice and what you can expect.

What does a Paediatrician do?

Paediatricians specialize in caring for patients between the ages of birth and 17 years of age. I perform routine well-child exams to monitor growth and development, and provide advice on nutrition and how to raise healthy children. I also diagnose and treat acute and chronic illnesses, such as colds and minor ailments, chest/ ear infections, asthma, and epilepsy. I may also refer patients to other specialists as needed.

Paediatricians also act as advocates for their young patients, supporting their physical, emotional, and social well-being.

When do I need to see my Paediatrician?

Book an appointment to see me if your child is ill- whether a minor ailment or something you need “checked out” to have us reassure you, or an acute illness such as a cold or cough or ear infection, or a chronic illness that I need to diagnose or follow up- such as allergy, asthma or epilepsy.

I also do routine well child visits at birth (usually in hospital), at 1-2 weeks post-delivery, at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year, 18 months, 2 years and annually until 5 years. Routine visits are adjusted according to any risk factors a child has, and illnesses that arise.

I also see the preteens and teenagers up to 17 years of age- a complex period of development where the guidance of a paediatrician can be crucial.

Do you take on new patients?

Yes, we do! We welcome new patients whether you’re simply looking for a second opinion or a natural and wholistic approach to your child’s health.

How do I pay?

Consultations in the rooms need to be settled by you after each consultation. We will send you an invoice to enable you to claim back from your medical aid. In-hospital care is billed directly to your medical aid, or settled by you if not on a medical aid.
