Bio

Education and Training

Dr Naidoo graduated with her undergraduate degree in 2005 from Nelson Mandela School of Medicine. This was followed up with internship at RK Khan Hospital and community service at General Justice Gizenga Mpanza Regional Hospital.

However from the earliest days of her medical career she always knew she would achieve her goal of becoming a paediatrician and she did so in 2012 from the College of Medicine South Africa. Dr Naidoo has practiced at Lenmed Ethekwini Hospital and Heart Centre as a specialist paediatrician with a keen interest in neonatal care. “It has been a pleasure working with the skilled nurses in our neonatal intensive care unit and with our multidisciplinary team that we have on hand” says Dr Naidoo.

Dr Naidoo’s paediatric outpatient practice offers friendly and integrative care to all children. In a child friendly and accommodative environment, it offers varied services which include growth and developmental assessments, immunisations, health education, HIV and infectious diseases screening or management, as well as comprehensive care of childhood acute and chronic illnesses.
