Chris B. Del Mar is a paediatrician based in Robina, Queensland. You can find the practice at 14 University Dr, Robina QLD 4229. Chris looks after children and helps families deal with the bumps and worries that come with growing up.
Chris treats a wide range of common childhood illnesses, especially when kids are off colour with cold and flu type symptoms. That can include things like the common cold, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis, and viral infections such as RSV. At times, it’s also about fevers, coughs, and sore throats that need a clear plan for what to do next.
Ear and throat problems are a big part of day-to-day paediatrics too. Chris works with children who have issues like otitis, tonsillitis, and tons of cases where there’s an ear infection or fluid build-up (otitis media with effusion). Sometimes kids come in with a ruptured eardrum, and in those situations it’s important to check what’s going on and guide the next steps safely.
There are also other concerns that can show up in general paediatric care. Chris manages conditions like thrush and urinary tract infection (UTI), and at times helps families with illnesses such as mononucleosis. Some kids also need support when they’ve been unwell with breathing symptoms linked to parainfluenza. When there are more serious complications, like rheumatic fever, care is still about making sure the treatment and follow-up are clear and steady.
In terms of experience, Chris’s work covers both quick, common illnesses and the follow-up that families often need after an infection. The focus stays on practical care—checking symptoms properly, explaining what to watch for at home, and making sure parents and carers understand the plan. Education is centred on paediatric medicine and caring for children’s health, including ongoing learning as medical advice and guidelines update over time.
Chris also stays across what’s happening in child health more broadly, so care can fit with current evidence-based practice. There aren’t any specific clinical trials listed, but the approach is always to use the best available information to support kids and families through each illness.
