Dr Jane Smith | Consultant Paediatrician
MBBS DCH FRACP | ABN 12 652 484 336
I enjoy the diversity and challenge of managing the full range of general paediatric medicine in infants through to teenagers.
My particular interests include:
Developmental and behavioural paediatrics,
Neurodiversity,
Feeding, growth, settling and sleep issues in young children.
I am an accredited Autism Spectrum Diagnostician with Autism SA. If I feel a formal assessment is needed and your child is under 5 years of age, I may agree to conduct it, but I will generally refer your child to an accredited Allied Health diagnostic team.

Except when taking leave and on public holidays, I consult at Prosper Paediatrics, Toorak Gardens on most Mondays and Tuesdays.

My professional training and experience.
I was born and raised in Adelaide and graduated from the University of Adelaide with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery in 2009. I completed my general paediatric training at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Flinders Medical Centre, Lyell McEwin Hospital and the Royal Darwin Hospital prior to admission to the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP).
As a mother to three young children, I understand the demands of a busy family life.
