Private paediatric care

Delivering specialist care and treatment to children and adolescents

Enquiries & Appointments

HCA UK offers the full breadth of children’s services across our paediatric sites, delivered by leading consultant paediatricians and an expert team of healthcare professionals.

The world-class, complex medical care and surgery we provide is supported by our paediatric intensive care unit, where our clinical specialists have access to the most highly advanced medical technology. We diagnose and treat children and babies for a range of conditions, all the time ensuring families who visit us are made to feel as comfortable and reassured as possible, and that our young patients have access to many entertainment options.

Our children's department is open at all times for elective and urgent admissions. We also run a fast-track referral service, enabling your child to have a same-day or next-day appointment with a general paediatrician. Please read on below to find out more.

Our visitor policy for paediatrics

We ask that only one parent or guardian is allowed to attend the appointment or admission.

Working with charities

We're incredibly proud of our relationship with Chain of Hope, a charity bringing medical experts together to deliver life-saving heart treatments to children in developing and war-torn countries.

Urgent Care Centre for Children

Our Urgent Care Centre is for non-life threatening medical needs and minor conditions. Here, children aged 0-17 can receive the urgent care they need 365 days a year, through same-day, face-to-face appointments and video consultations.

We provide your child with rapid access to our rota of leading paediatricians, urgent care doctors and specialist nurses. GPs and nurses with expertise in emergency paediatric care run the centre and are able to diagnose and treat any acute or underlying serious condition your child might have.
