THE Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) recently celebrated 25 years of sending doctors to Western District Health Service (WDHS) to provide endocrinology and diabetes support to young people.

For the past 25 years, RCH specialist clinicians have been travelling to regional cities including Hamilton, Horsham, Wangaratta, Geelong and Mildura every three months to deliver outreach services, advice and support.
