Paediatric surgery, Surgery

The children’s surgery service is the regional centre for specialist and general surgical care. 

We see children from south east London, Kent and south east England. 

We care for children from the womb, through birth and childhood.

Across the region, we work closely with and provide surgical support to a range of other children’s services including:

• children's intensive care (PICU)  and neonatal intensive care  units
• children’s neurosciences
• children’s inherited metabolic diseases
• congenital heart disease
• children’s kidney service
• other specialist children’s services at Evelina London Children’s Hospital.

We provide general surgery services at Evelina London Children’s Hospital, University Hospital Lewisham and at a range of outreach clinics across the south Thames region.

We also carry out specialist investigations and surgical management for disorders of the gut (the gastrointestinal tract).
