Doctor's advice:
- “The best treatment outcomes are achieved where there is trust and an individualized approach. Every child should feel comfortable, supported and safe during interaction with their specialist. A child’s psychological well-being begins in the family — it is where the first experience of safety and acceptance is formed.”
