myTobago – your questions, review and comment about Tobago

Hello, we are taking our small kids to Tobago - store bay and then castara and I wondered if anyone had a name of a good childrens doctor on the island. I am sure I am being paranoid but it makes me feel better to have a contact in case one of my kids should get ill.....
Thanks!

Can't offer any personal reccomendation but pharmacies, doctors, dentists are listed on this site. Go to "odds & sods" then "health & medical".There is a female doctor who seems to be oriented to paediatrics.Also you will find emergency numbers.

Amber,don't worry so.Tobago is a modern country,plenty of medical assistance and a reasonable hospital(old but capable,and as good as your average NHS)most villages,including Castara have a medical centre,with visiting doctors and nurses,Castara also has an ambulance stationed there.

Dr Maria Remy is a paediatrician who works at the Scarborough Hospital and also has a private practice.
Her contact number is 685 9033.

Scarborough Hospital also has a second paediatrician on staff (Dr Gillian Wheeler).

Thanks so much that is really helpful.

guess amber is long gone already, but thought for others:
gillian wheeler, trinagle building in scarborough (near ciao cafe), phone: 6607382
was there a few time only (little ali is only 5.5 month now, and sleeping so I have time to post today ) but always felt well taken care off!
