Paediatrician in Central - and recommendations?

I want to take my child to a paediatrician in HK to consult about his height and weight. He is 2.7 years old and weighs 11kg (for the last 6 months), so really worried about his weight gain. He is a very picky eater (meal times are always a struggle) and his allergies to certain foods certainly do not help. I just want help on how I can make him eat better. I've done all the tricks in the books and none of them seem to work
would appreciate recommendations

Finally, I found Dr. Yvonne Ou. She is accessible, smart,
I think she is the best!

Fully agree on Dr. Ou. Initially I found her a bit overwhelming (fast and loud speaking), then I realized that she really knows what she is doing and talking about, that's why the words are very strong and confident.
 
I recommend Dr.Rupal at IMI, if you don't mind to take alternative medicine.
She is Homeopath, and it does really work for my daughter. It is very helpful for our family which have an allergy history.
 
I SO TOTALLY AGREE ON YVONNE OU !
My baby was born 9 month ago in Matilda with dr Lord and after a very hard pregnancy in France (Amniosynthesis, several intrusives echos, MRI of the baby...) I arrived in HK 5 weeks before my due date (imagine my state of mind & my level of stress!).
Yvonne was there during my delivery and when my baby finally came out (27 hours after my induction) she has show the highest level of confidence, self control and professionalism I have ever seen. Not only she saved his life but she did it without alarming us. She explained what was happening at the same time and was really incredible.
Since then she has been great advice (lost of weight during the first weeks, colics) always with confidence and she is very nice to babies too wich is great. I saw 2 others when she was on holidays but I definitly go back to her.

We see Dr Dannie Ting on the 19th in the same building. She's also at the Canossa Hospital out patient and baby clinic in the mornings. Getting an appt with her on the same day is relatively easy. She's very warm and doesn't over medicate.

Hi rani,
Do you mind sharing Dr Ting's contacts? I want to call and make an appointment. Is she available during weekends?
thanks,
Mickeymom
 
thanks Rani!

I've also been recommended to Dr. Tanpa Thondup. Do you have any experience with him?

Anyone else wants to share their experience with me, all very welcome.

thanks
 
Is a pediatrician the only option?

Hi
I'm looking for a good GP in Central or close by.
Can anyone recommend one?
I've just come back from australia with a new baby.
It is rare to visit a pediatrician there, especially for general illness, such as fever and colds that I know a baby will get a lot of.
Unfortunately we do not have a company that covers our health cover so I am not so keen to pay a premium amount for a specialist to tell me that my baby needs panadol, if there is an option.
Can anyone recommend a good GP who is familiar with child health and is not quick to over medicate unneccesarily?
Or has the general experience been that GP's have been not good enough?
 
Good GP in Central

Hi Cinnomon,

Nice to meet you!! I came back from Australia as well. If you want a GP with Diploma in Child Health, I will recommend Dr Thomas Chan, used to be a resident MO in Canossa Hospital. He has his own clinic in Tak Shing House, Central year ago(phone number : 2973 0968), , and he's also from Australia. Dr Chan is very experienced and patient, and can call him from Canossa out-patient during holidays. BTW, how old is your baby? My kids are three years old and 8 months old.
