On Monday 6 May, the Principality welcomed its new paediatrician, Dr. Stéphanie De Smet, who was a hospital practitioner in the resuscitation and neonatology department and in charge of the neonatal and paediatric SAMU 06.

Paediatricians are doctors who care for the health of children from 0 to 18 years of age and play a vital role in a family’s well-being.

Didier Gamerdinger, Government Councillor-Minister of Health and Social Affairs, believes that, “In view of the needs of the population, it was essential to recruit a paediatrician who supports the health of children and maintains a relationship from birth to adulthood that instills confidence in parents.”
