With this ethos our team of dedicated paediatric consultants build long-lasting relationships with children and families, supporting the precious journey from birth into adulthood.

Our Paediatric department also supports the Urgent Care Centre by providing expert opinion for all children who walk into the hospital of St John and St Elizabeth’s. We further extend that welcome to our youngest clients, right from birth we are here for you.

Patient Information

We recognise that coming into hospital can be a stressful and an unnerving experience. At St John & St Elizabeth Hospital we are committed to the welfare of all our patients and you will find all staff will work hard to ensure your stay with us is a positive experience.

We have recently moved our paediatricians to a new private facility within the hospital called OPD A.

The new dedicated children’s clinic has 8 private consulting rooms, 2 treatment rooms and a private reception waiting area.

Our surgical and medical consultants who see children will continue to use OPD B,  please check your appointment details before arrival.
