Private GP Care for Babies and Children in Hitchin
Nothing tests a parent's nerves like a poorly child and a two-week wait. At Mayfield Clinic Hitchin, our GPs look after children of all ages, from newborn worries to teenage health, with the same-day access and unhurried attention that children's medicine deserves.
Speed: same-day appointments mean today's worry is assessed today, often the difference between a reassured evening and a sleepless one. Time: children don't perform symptoms on cue; longer appointments let your GP observe, examine gently and answer every question. Continuity: the same GP sees your child each time, learns what's normal for them, and knows your family's history.
Some things need hospital care, and a good GP knows when. If your child is seriously unwell, struggling to breathe, unusually drowsy, or you're simply very worried, emergency services come first, always. For everything else, we're here, usually today.
Usually, yes. Same-day children's appointments are a core part of what we do. Book online and choose a time at our Hitchin clinic that works for you.
From birth. Our GPs see newborns, babies, toddlers, school-age children and teenagers, and many Hitchin families use the same GP for every member.
No. One parent or legal guardian accompanying the child is all that's needed. We may ask for identification, and for older teens we'll discuss appropriate independence in their care.
