AGE range for Paediatric services: The Paediatricians accept new referrals for children up to 12 years of age according to each doctor's availability (see "For referrers" section of website for updates on specific doctor availability and referral criteria). Some doctors will provide extended care for their existing, well-known older patients up to 16 -18 years of age, depending on the young person's issues. Paediatricians are required to then transition patients back to GP care by 18 years of age, for the GP to facilitate referral on to adult care services. Stimulant medication prescriptions from Paediatricians are not valid once the child turns 18 years.
