Description

Join an established and growing private paediatric practice

Paeds Plus is seeking experienced Consultant General Paediatricians from across Australia and New Zealand to join our expanding multidisciplinary team.

Based in Currambine, Perth, Paeds Plus is an established private paediatric healthcare organisation with consistent year-on-year growth and a 100% medical staff retention rate.

We are progressing towards opening a second location in Claremont, Perth, targeted for July 2027. Claremont is planned to be one of the largest private paediatric services in Western Australia, with expanded specialist paediatric services and a full allied health line-up.

We offer the opportunity to practise broad general paediatric medicine while developing or expanding your clinical interests in ADHD, autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions.

The clinical opportunity

We are seeking a well-rounded General Paediatrician, not simply an ADHD assessment clinician.

Your practice may include general paediatric presentations, infant and feeding concerns, growth and nutrition, asthma, gastrointestinal conditions, chronic medical conditions, ADHD, autism, learning and developmental difficulties, and complex presentations requiring multidisciplinary management.

We value evidence-based practice, continuity of care and professional collaboration.
