Victorian Paediatric Group

The Victorian Paediatric Group in Elsternwick is a private practice that provides specialist medical care for babies, children, and teenagers. The group consists of experienced paediatricians and allied health professionals who have trained at prominent paediatric centres in Victoria, including The Royal Children's Hospital and Monash Children's Hospital. The practice is committed to a family-centred team approach, developing individual management plans tailored to each child within their family setting.

The group offers consultations for a wide range of general paediatric health and developmental problems. These include conditions such as asthma, eczema, abdominal pain, poor growth, gastro-oesophageal reflux, and bowel problems. The clinicians provide diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management for both acute and chronic illnesses, ensuring comprehensive care for their patients.

A key area of focus for the Victorian Paediatric Group is its specialised Thrive Feeding Service. This service is dedicated to addressing complex feeding issues in children. The team, which includes paediatricians, dietitians, and speech pathologists, manages conditions such as fussy eating, severe food aversion, Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), poor weight gain, and feeding tube dependency. They employ a multidisciplinary approach to support children and their families.
