17.01.2022 Here's a useful little video on YouTube which helps to explain kidney anatomy for kids. With an alert that some of the pronounciation is a bit Americanised! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zWw2yZlsRG0

13.01.2022 In the light of the current Covid-19 pandemic, Dr Willis will be conducting his Perth Paediatric Nephrology consultations via telehealth (through mobile telephone video or Skype link) for the next few months. These consultations will run to pre-booked timings and will be bulk billed. Bookings can be made as normal via phone (9386 2991; 0422941853) or email ([email protected]) We apologise for the inconvenience but feel that these measures are required to quell the spread of the virus, protect vulnerable populations in our community and reduce the stress on our already over-stressed health system. Patients who already have bookings will be contacted shortly.
