The Paediatric Specialists

What The Paediatric Specialists does

The Paediatric Specialists is a privately operated, multi-disciplinary paediatric medical practice located at Suite 2, Level 1, 22 George Street, North Strathfield, NSW 2137, founded in 2014 by Dr. Czarina Mendoza-Cruz. The practice provides specialist paediatric care for children from birth to 18 years across nine service lines: General Paediatrics, Developmental Paediatrics, Paediatric Endocrinology, Paediatric Surgery, Neonatal Paediatrics, Sleep and Respiratory Medicine, Clinical Genetics, Psychology, and Paediatric Dietetics. Its clinical team includes FRACP-credentialed consultants with affiliations to Sydney Children's Hospital Network (Westmead and Randwick), supplemented by a Clinical Psychologist and an Accredited Practising Dietitian, with selected Saturday appointments for allied health services.

The practice operates on a referral-based, private-billing model: patients are referred by General Practitioners or other specialists, and the practice does not bulk-bill, charging out-of-pocket fees below the Australian Medical Association schedule with Medicare Easyclaim for immediate rebate processing. Initial appointments are face-to-face at the North Strathfield clinic (co-located above I-Med Radiology in the Bakehouse Quarter, Building C), while follow-up consultations can be conducted via Telehealth video for patients in rural or remote NSW. Payments are accepted via cash, EFTPOS, Mastercard, and Visa, with surcharges on card transactions. The practice also delivers paediatric dietetic services to NDIS Participants (plan- or self-managed).

The technology stack is conventional for a private medical practice: medical consultation software for scheduling and records, Telehealth video conferencing, and Medicare Easyclaim electronic claiming infrastructure. Marketing and patient acquisition are driven primarily by GP and specialist referrals (sent via email or fax), supplemented by a content-capable WordPress website, a Facebook page, and a Twitter handle (@TPS_Sydney). The practice complies with Australia's Privacy Act 1988 and holds no external funding, parent company, or public listing.
