Dr Rachel Noovao

Dr Rachel Noovao is a Developmental & Behavioural Paediatrician with a reputation for her comprehensive assessments and advocacy to help children reach their full potential. She has worked in Paediatrics since 2007, including at the Queensland Children’s Hospital (QCH).

While Dr Noovao’s books are currently closed, she is aiming to accept a small number of referrals for children with suspected ADHD, Learning, Sleep or Continence difficulties in 2027 (for children under 10 years of age only). Due to medical difficulties in her own family, she does not have capacity to see new patients with more complex neurodevelopmental difficulties, including ASD for the foreseeable future, & is not always available for urgent reviews.

If you have an urgent concerns about a child who is an existing patient of Rachel's and are unable to obtain a review with Dr Noovao soon enough, please see your GP, visit the emergency department or contact CYMHS (Child & Youth Mental Health Service) during office hours on 07 5409 9111, or the acute mental health service after hours on 07 3068 2555.

Please also review Dr Noovao's most recent clinic letter, as this may provide further clinical advice from her most recent appointment with your child (this would have been sent to the child's GP with a copy emailed to the parents).
