Why choose a developmental - behavioural paediatrician?
Developmental-behavioural paediatricians are medical doctors who are trained and experienced in diagnosing and treating the medical and psychosocial aspects of children's and adolescents' developmental and behavioural problems. Developmental-behavioural paediatricians usually have additional subspecialty training after their MBBS and MD in managing the developmental and behavioural aspects of children and adolescents.
