Questions

Where can we see Dr Dylan?

Your child can be seen in private rooms at Prince of Wales Private Hospital, Wollongong Surgical Associates or the rooms in Bowral.

If they need surgery and are younger than six months of age, or if the surgery is more complicated than simple day case surgery, this will need to be done at Sydney Children's Hospital in Randwick.

For private day case surgery, this can be done at Prince of Wales Private Hospital in Randwick or Wollongong Private Hospital.

​

As Dylan has appointments at both Sydney Children's Hospital Randwick and Campbelltown Hospital, you can have all your treatment at no cost through the public system if that is your preference. There are outpatient clinics at both of these sites also.

​

Do I need a referral?

​

What are the costs involved?
