Has anyone used the services at Kiki's clinic at Thurleigh Rd Practice.
We have school recommending Developmental checks - he's 5yrs (OT, social skills) and looking for a local clinic or Pediatrician.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi Britchick

Firstly your school should really be on top of this and make suggestions. If he/she is at a state school - wandsworth should get involved and they will be fantastic - trust me!

If you're at a private school then you will be funding yourselves. We see an amazing SLT (speech therapist) - Ruth Jacobs, Sloane Square. It also depends what they think the problem is - speech, OT etc. If i were you i'd go to Diane Smyth at the Portland - she's not the cheapest but she's amazing and will give you an amazing overall opinion. And she's sensible as diagnosis are sadly knocked around quite easily now.

Please do PM me if you want more information but do speak to your school - they should be guiding you which i'm sure they are!

Hi Britchick

I've taken my daughter to see Kiki and she is fantastic. She is a physio but I believe she and her colleagues also cover lots of non-physical therapies and checks. She has years of experience and a great reputation with people bringing their kids long journeys to see her.

Private health insurance will usually cover her fees if you have a referral letter (ask your GP).

Good luck
