Why choose a home-visit pediatric consultation?

Taking a sick child to a conventional doctor's office is often stressful. Home-based medicine transforms the medical experience into something warm and natural.

👶

More relaxed children

The baby or child remains in their safe environment, surrounded by their toys. This greatly facilitates exploration and reduces fear of the pediatrician.

🛡️

No risk of infection

In waiting rooms, it's common for respiratory or stomach viruses to cross paths. By staying home, you protect your child from further exposure and infection.

🕐

Absolute punctuality

Forget about waiting for hours in crowded waiting rooms. We respect scheduled times to accommodate your child's rest and meal routine.

🚗

Goodbye to the stress of moving

Especially useful with newborns or when there are several siblings at home. It saves you from dressing a child with a fever, looking for parking, and driving in a hurry.

🤱

Time spent

Home visits are longer and more conversational. Dr. Katia listens attentively to parents' questions about breastfeeding, development, and parenting.

📋

Real-time tracking

Observing the child in their daily environment allows the pediatrician to give much more personalized and practical recommendations to the family.

Adapted Medical Services

We offer two consultation options to adapt to each need: the maximum proximity in your home or the speed of a video call wherever you are.
