About Dr Walton D'Costa

Dr Walton D'Costa is a highly experienced consultant neonatologist and paediatrician with over 25 years of experience. He gained his medical degree from Goa University in 1995 and has trained at some of the UK's most prestigious hospitals, including St George's Hospital, King's College Hospital, and Evelina Children's Hospital, London.
