A feverish child at midnight doesn't need a taxi ride and an hour in a crowded waiting room. A doctor comes to your home to examine, reassure and treat — so your child can stay in their own bed while they're seen.
Waiting rooms are stressful for children and a place where one infection can become two. A home visit means no exposure to other sick patients, no disturbing a sleeping child for a car journey, and a doctor who can take time to examine a wriggly toddler properly.
You'll get a clear explanation of what's going on, what to watch for, and a digital MC and prescription where needed — without leaving the house.
Fever, sore throats, ear pain and the usual seasonal bugs — examined and treated at home. Not for babies under 3 months with a fever: those go to hospital.
Persistent coughs, blocked noses and chesty colds assessed, with advice on what helps and what doesn't.
Vomiting, diarrhoea, rashes and hydration checked — with clear guidance on keeping fluids up.
Difficulty breathing or rapid breathing; a fit or seizure; a rash that doesn't fade when pressed; unusual drowsiness or floppiness; a stiff neck with fever; persistent vomiting with no wet nappies or tears; or a baby under 3 months with a fever. These need emergency care, not a home visit.
For everything else — the ordinary fevers, coughs and tummy bugs of childhood — a home visit is often the gentler option. If you're unsure, call us and we'll help you decide.
Common ones — fever, coughs and colds, sore throats, ear pain, rashes, vomiting and diarrhoea. A doctor examines your child, advises on treatment and can prescribe medication. For breathing difficulty, a fit, a non-fading rash, drowsiness or signs of dehydration, call 995 immediately — and for any baby under 3 months with a fever, go straight to a children's emergency department rather than booking a visit.
We operate 24/7, and a doctor comes to you at home — useful when a child spikes a fever overnight and you would rather not wake them for a clinic or A&E queue.
For an older baby with an ordinary childhood illness, often yes. But a baby under 3 months with a fever must be assessed in hospital, not at home — that is a fixed rule, not a judgement call, because fever at that age needs blood and urine tests that cannot be done in a home. Take them to a children's emergency department. For any baby under 3 months, whatever the problem, call us before booking and we will tell you honestly whether a home visit is appropriate.
