The Practice
Established by Dr Ahmed Massoud in 2001, our clinicians at Starlight Paediatrics provide holistic medical care for children up to the age of 18. We cover a wide spectrum of general paediatric conditions, ranging from acute medical problems to routine check-ups, newborn examinations, childhood immunisations, and any problems encountered in infancy, childhood or their teenage years. For 21 years in a row, Starlight Paediatrics has been the no 1 paediatric user of The Portland Hospital, the largest private paediatric facility in the UK.
In 2019 and after 30 years in private paediatric practice at The Fysh Practice, Dr John Fysh joined Starlight Paediatrics as a Senior Consultant.
