Paediatrician Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the past decade working in paediatrics across tertiary and regional settings, and I’ve learned how a calm, well‑paced approach helps families navigate uncertain moments. In my current role, I’ve used bedside assessment plus targeted tests to guide treatment plans for around 60 children a month, with a focus on clear communication with families and the broader team. I am comfortable with the full spectrum of paediatric care, from history taking and physical exams to interpreting diagnostic results and prescribing medicines. I regularly coordinate with nurse practitioners and allied health staff, maintain accurate medical records, and ensure notifiable disease reporting is completed promptly. I’m interested in how [Company Name] supports multidisciplinary care and family‑centred approaches. A recent example stands out. A 6‑month‑old presented with fever and dehydration after a day at home. I led the assessment, ordered appropriate tests, and interpreted results with the parents present. We admitted the child for observation, started IV fluids, and adjusted treatment as test results evolved. The family left reassured after a careful discharge plan and follow‑up, and the ward team noted improved efficiency in our handover process. I’m available to discuss how I can contribute to [Company Name] and support your paediatric team. I can be reached to arrange a time for a chat. Kind regards, [Your Name]
