As a service to our clients, there are many organized paediatric medical and dental clinics at Thames Valley Children's Centre. Clinics offer diagnosis-specific assessment and consultation. The Specialty Clinics have one or more physician specialists or dentists available. TVCC Clinicians including physiotherapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), speech-language pathology (SLP), and registered nurse clinician (RN) are a part of these Specialty Clinics as outlined below. Other disciplines including recreation, social work and service co-ordination may also be available to act as a resource to clients, families and community service providers. Clients and their families may see several disciplines in one visit, depending upon their needs and the availability of the various specialists and disciplines.
