About
Sydney Paediatric Cardiology

We provide clinical excellence and family centred care for all paediatric cardiology conditions. We are able to provide all of the necessary skills and expertise for your children from birth to adulthood. All of our cardiologists have full admitting rights to both of the Children’s Hospitals in Sydney, providing access to comprehensive investigations and the necessary care for your child. Our doctors provide specialist state-wide care to children with heart conditions, and are leaders in their field. We also recognise that high level
medical care not only involves delivering the very best care to the child, but giving holistic and compassionate care to the family with integrity and honesty.

All staff in our centres provide World-Class care to all children and their families. We are able to offer care from newborn infants through to older teenagers and young adults. Our cardiologists have developed strong relationships over many years with adult cardiologists. When the time comes this allows for the seamless transitioning of care for those young adults that will need ongoing specialist care.

Our specialists offer services across Sydney. Our principal practise is based at Westmead in close proximity to the Children’s Hospital at Westmead. Our specialists visit locations across Sydney and other large centres in NSW.
