Meet Dr. Mandy Li Paediatrician (MBBS, FRACP)

‘‘I work with children and families to help them through any issues they encounter’’ – Dr Mandy Li

All new patients will require a medial referral from their GP to access our Paediatric service. Paediatric service is delivered at our Box Hill location at Carrington Health, 43 Carrington Rd, Box Hill.

Due to high demand, we are unable to accept new referrals/new clients to the paediatrician clinic (with Dr Mandy Li) at this time.

Leaps and Bounds - Tori's Story

“If you had seen Tori even a year-and-a-half ago, you wouldn’t believe she’s the same child. You couldn’t have a conversation with her; the few words she did know were simply repeating or ‘parroting’ what she was hearing - this - what you see today, is what healthAbility has done” - Cherrie, Tori's mother.

Read about Tori's amazing journey being supported by our Children's Team and Paediatrician Dr Mandy thanks to Community Bank Blackburn South.
