About Telebaby
Telebaby with Dr. Samuel Heitner – Paediatric Help is Just a Click Away! I’m Dr. Samuel Heitner, a paediatrician with over 15 years of experience and the founder of Telebaby. Being a parent is one of the most rewarding, yet challenging, journeys you’ll ever take, and I’m here to support you whenever you need it.
I offer Telehealth video consultations tailored specifically for babies, supporting parents and families Australia-wide, 7 days a week, all from the comfort and safety of your home.
If you’re worried about your baby’s reflux, colic, constipation, poor weight gain, unsettled behaviour, rashes, suspect a milk allergy, or have any other concern, Telebaby is here to provide guidance and peace of mind. My services include a video consultation, one week of email support following your consult, and a follow-up call to check in on your baby’s progress. If needed, I can also provide Escripts, including specialised infant formula for cow’s milk allergy, blood tests, imaging, medical certificates, and more.
In addition to Telebaby, I work as a paediatrician in the Emergency Department at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead and care for babies in the Special Care Nursery and the post-natal ward at Sydney Southwest Private Hospital. I am also a Clinical Associate Lecturer with The University of Sydney and a Fellow of The Royal Australasian College of Physicians (FRACP) – Paediatrics & Child Health Division.
