  • About Dr Nightingale

Thank you for visiting this website. Dr Nightingale no longer offers private consultations.  All consultations take place through the clinics at John Hunter Children’s Hospital Outpatients Department.  He still has a private endoscopy list at Warners Bay Private Hospital for patients seen through the clinics who require an endoscopy and prefer to have their procedure through the private system.  

Referrals to the Paediatric Gastroenterology Clinics at John Hunter Children’s Hospital can be made by your child’s GP or specialist via the electronic SeNT referral system or by faxing to 02 4922 3904.  Referrals are triaged so that more clinically urgent referrals can be seen sooner. Due to the demand for appointments and the tertiary nature of the service, not all referrals can be accepted.  Some common conditions such as constipation, functional abdominal pain, encopresis (soiling), infantile reflux can be managed by GPs or general paediatricians.
