Caring for Kids TAKING ANXIETY & TEARS AND TURNING THEM INTO SMILES We want your child’s first time experience in hospital to be calm and without fear or anxiety. From arriving at the front reception, through to surgery and then back to their private room with ensuite, we make sure your child’s experience is colourful, warm and fun. Parents are looked after as well with meals and a stay overnight. Dr Shashi Singh, Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) Surgeon is instrumental in ensuring the children he operates on have a wonderful experience. If you would like your child’s next ENT operation at Brisbane Waters Private with Dr Singh please call 4324 5677 or ask your GP for a referral.
