Dr Jo Jones, Private Consultant Paediatrician
Curriculum Vitae
Dr Jo Jones
|
I trained in London, and have been a children's doctor since 1994. I have worked in many of the major hospitals in the West Midlands, including Birmingham Children's Hospital, gaining a very wide range of experience. I'm accredited by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health in General Paediatrics (general kids' issues) but also work as a Consultant Paediatrician in Community Paediatrics which covers more specialised areas such as Disability, Autism and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. See my qualifications. My Consultant post is based in Solihull. Amongst other things, I head up the team specialising in children with very complex conditions, including terminal illness. There are very few children's doctors like me, who are confident working with such a wide range of childhood and teenage illnesses, developmental and social problems. This means that I can act as a 'one stop shop' working with your child holistically without the frequent need to refer elsewhere. I do, however, have an excellent range of specialised colleagues, ranging from Consultant Experts to therapists in Physiotherapy, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Psychology with whom I can discuss problems and occasionally refer to when necessary to provide a safe and comprehensive service for you.
