Preparing for your consultation
Carry your child’s vaccination record, growth records if available, previous prescriptions and relevant reports. Note any allergies and medicines currently being used. When booking, tell the team your child’s age and ask whether any specific preparation is required. A familiar toy or comfort item may help your child feel at ease.
