Hi, I’m Halima
My name is Halima, and it is my pleasure to be your trusted online paediatrician. With over twenty years of experience working with families from all over the world, across numerous paediatric specialities, my passion lies in providing compassionate, reliable healthcare.
I am excited to offer telehealth consultations to provide families with the convenience of accessible healthcare.
A telehealth appointment is just like a normal appointment; except you will be seeing and speaking to me from your phone, tablet, or desktop.
What I Do
As your paediatrician, I will begin by listening closely to your needs, expectations and circumstances with warmth and respect. I provide specialist, evidence-based medical care for children aged 0-15, tailoring my services to meet the specific needs of each family. I believe in nurturing healthy families as a whole, as great health starts in the sustainable habits and lifestyle the whole family commits to.
To ensure you are getting the very best service possible, I work closely with other medical professionals to address your healthcare needs for backed-up opinions and solutions for your circumstances. If at any time I do not believe my skill set to be the best support for you, I can provide trusted recommendations for specific care specialists to ensure your child’s health care needs are met.
At all times, your child’s health and your satisfaction are my main priorities.
Benefits of online consultations
Many in person appointments were cancelled or postponed during the COVID lockdown. A delay in timely healthcare can adversely affect health of all patients including children.
My goal is to minimise delays to your children’s healthcare needs. I can achieve this by working with you online to provide specialist paediatric advice when you need it.
Telemedicine has been in use for several years now. Its popularity increased significantly during the pandemic bringing advances in technological options. It is not suitable for emergencies or when a full physical examination is required. However, you can get your questions about your child’s health answered and get a real-time diagnosis and medical advice from a specialist. In future, I will be offering the option of a shared appointment with your GP using a variety of telemedicine software.
