About our service
Our service is the state-wide lead in the management of Paediatric HIV. We provide medical management, psycho-social support, research, consultation and education to children, families and pregnant women living with HIV.
The HIV service provides comprehensive health care to all families in NSW, regardless of where HIV positive children receive their medical treatment.
Our aim is to help affected children and families maintain as normal a life as possible, and provide children with opportunities to reach their maximum potential.
Our team includes specialist Infectious Disease Doctors, Clinical Nurse Consultant, Senior Social Worker, and Dietitian. We also provides patient and family supports including camps for children and families living with HIV.
Referral process for clinicians
Our department is using Consultmed to manage referrals. The Consultmed platform allows health professionals to send e-referrals to us securely.

Referral and appointment process for parents and carers
Request a referral
To make an appointment at our clinic, you will need a referral from your GP, paediatrician or specialist.
They will assess your child, discuss your concerns, and make a referral to the appropriate service.
Track your referral
Our department uses Consultmed to manage referrals. Your referring clinician sends the e-referral to us using the secure Consultmed platform.
Once we receive the referral, we will send you an email with your tracking information. We will update you as we process the referral and book your appointment.
To receive these updates, please ask your referring clinician to include your email on the referral.
If your clinician has questions about Consultmed or require technical support, they can contact helpdesk@consultmed.co.
