Barwon Paediatrics 242 Malop Street, Geelong, Victoria 3220
About the Business
Welcome to Barwon Paediatrics, a specialised institution providing paediatric and psychiatric health services for babies, children, adolescents, and young adults in Geelong, Australia. Located at 242 Malop Street, our establishment is a point of interest and an essential healthcare resource in the area.
At Barwon Paediatrics, we consider it a privilege to be involved in the care and nurture of the children and young adults in our local community, alongside their families. Our team of dedicated medical professionals, including specialist paediatric and psychiatric doctors, are committed to providing the highest quality of care with compassion, warmth, understanding, and without judgement.
Our services extend to Greater Geelong, Bellarine, Surfcoast, and surrounding regions, ensuring that children and young adults in these areas have access to specialised healthcare. Our expert doctors are skilled in assessing and managing a range of complex developmental and behavioural problems, ensuring accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
When it comes to medical conditions in infants, children, and adolescents, our consultant Paediatricians, with advanced medical training in this field, offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment. We specialize in neuro-developmental disorders, including neuro-psychiatric problems, impaired motor function, and difficulties with learning, language, or non-verbal communication.
In addition to paediatric services, we also focus on psychiatric health for adolescents and young adults, aged 13-30, as well as their families. Our dedicated team works closely with families and couples in intimate relationships to foster positive change and development.
In light of the current situation, we have modified our practice to ensure the safety of our patients. All doctors and staff in the clinic are double-vaccinated, and we follow strict protocols to minimize the risk of transmission. If a face-to-face consultation is deemed necessary by your doctor, we kindly request that only one parent/guardian accompanies the child to the practice. Upon arrival, please ring the buzzer and notify reception, who will guide you through the necessary health screening process before entering the building. Please refrain from entering the rooms if you or your child is unwell.
Alternatively, your doctor may recommend a telehealth appointment conducted via video link. You can access the necessary link from our TELEHEALTH page. Our reception can assist with any queries or concerns regarding telehealth appointments, including payment arrangements.
During this time, we are not accepting cash payments and encourage payment via credit or debit card over the phone. If required, your doctor can provide their bank account details for a direct deposit. Please note that for Medicare rebates, the patient (child for Paediatric) must be present during the consultation, either in person or through the video-link or telephone call. Failure to attend an appointment or cancel without sufficient notice may result in a fee, at the doctor's discretion.
At Barwon Paediatrics, we believe that the strength and success of a society can be measured by how well it cares for the most vulnerable members. We acknowledge the Wadawurrung Peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we operate and pay our respects to their Elders, past, present, and future, for allowing us to live and work on their land.
Choose Barwon Paediatrics for specialised paediatric and psychiatric health services, where your child's well-being is our top priority. Contact us today to schedule an appointment or learn more about our services.

Reviews
"Dr Janie Worth i highly recommend for a paediatrician, she takes her time to get to know the child and there history and so helpful on ways to help your child & medications. when i lost all hope she helped so much. both my kids see her regularly."
"The worst paediatrics office ive ever attended too. After years of dealing with Dr.doddamani and the unfair situations, disgusting behaviour and rude dealings with a certain lady by the name of Marilyn in the office i have come home to an email with false accusations & my children removed from the service. So, now my children are now not given anymore scripts for the medication they require on a daily basis that i requested over a week ago as we have run out. You enjoyed taking the money even when you didn't provide the service I needed from you. Absolutely appalling. Will never recommend. Considering I cant respond to the comment below, you know dam well I attended the appointments as Bethany family services and the school organised them on my behalf. 9/2/2023 - I reported BP to the health commission due to the fact they stopped my children's medications cold Turkey. Today I received an email that I would only get the scripts for the next 3 months on conditions I apologise and remove this review, go on a behaviour bond all because I threatened to report them due to the neglect. NOT HAPPENING. YOU should be the ones apologising after the effects this has put on our family, the children who are confused and struggling from being on medication to nothing. You are a joke and I hope you continue to loose clients. I already know 2 of my friends have dropped DR.DODDAMANI and found new paeds as have I. You are a joke."
"Dr. Ged O'Brien is an amazing psychiatrist. He really does listen to what you have to say. He not only treats children but adults as well. Yes, he is somewhat pricey, but at the end of the day, you get what you pay for. He does take alot of notes, but that only means he is focused on finding out and recording as much about you as he can. I also found that he works with people who have all sort of mental health issues and people who might be on many medications. But his primary specialty is ADHD and ADD in children and adults. He will do a thorough analysis before he prescribes any medication. He will work with you and listen to you, so if you think your medication isn't working, he is more than happy and flexible to try something else. At the end of the day, I would recommend him to anyone who has been disappointed with their old doctor and is looking for someone who is progressio and forward thinking."
"Dr O'Brien has significantly helped improve my quality of life. I have been a patient of his for 2 years and feel very fortunate to have a clinician that I feel comfortable talking to, and who has a clear objective of helping his patients. Thank you."
"Dr Jenner himself is lovely to speak to and very helpful , the receptionist are a different story. Very rude, and abrupt. Incredibly unhelpful. We won't be going back. *Edit* Also being given misleading information regarding appointments was very frustrating. We were told we could swap an appointment from one child to another, as the younger one is having a lot of trouble at school and desperately needed the appointment, then got told we couldn't do that as it wasn't "fair". We were collecting the paperwork for the second child and I had two very rude voice mails left. My husband and I have both worked years in customer service, and there is a big difference between being "firm" and rude. It's a shame, but but I'm happy to travel to Melbourne for polite service, and understanding of complex families."
