About Medivik

Medivik is a private paediatric practice based in Bella Vista, NSW, led by Consultant General Paediatrician Dr Vivek Akkera.

We see children from birth through adolescence for developmental, behavioural and general paediatric concerns, with visiting consultations available at partner clinics in Singleton and West Gosford.

Our work is built around removing the barriers that get in the way of good care, whether those are clinical, financial, geographic, or simply the dread a child feels walking into a sterile consulting room.

Led by Dr Vivek Akkera

Medivik is anchored by Dr Vivek Akkera, Consultant General Paediatrician and Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (FRACP). With over sixteen years of specialist experience across India, the United Kingdom and Australia, he brings a broad clinical perspective to every family he sees.

A trusted voice in child healths

For nearly a decade, Dr Akkera has served at Sydney Children’s Hospital Network and the Westmead Children’s Hospital. Families know him for his balanced approach, which combines evidence-based medicine with empathy, guiding them toward clarity and comfort.

Beyond the clinic

Outside of medicine, Dr Akkera values time with family and friends, enjoys travelling, cricket and exploring new experiences.

The Medivik Philosophy

We believe the structure of the healthcare system should never stand in the way of a child’s well-being. Our goal is to make care accessible, thoughtful, and free from the limitations that families often face.

Our Bella Vista clinic was built with that philosophy in mind. It moves away from the sterile, traditional medical setting and creates an environment that calms rather than intimidates. It is a place where children can feel at ease and parents can feel reassured from the moment they arrive.

Navigating Complex Family Dynamics

Family situations such as court orders or parental separation can complicate a child’s care. We provide guidance and support to ensure these challenges do not interfere with your child’s well-being, and to give families confidence that care remains consistent and reliable.

Addressing Accessibility and Financial Barriers

Bulk billing and other financial constraints can limit access to quality healthcare. We work to remove these barriers, making sure that families receive the care they need without compromise, and that every child has the same opportunity for good health.

Bridging Language and Communication Gaps

Language differences can turn healthcare into a confusing and stressful experience. We are committed to bridging these gaps so that every parent feels heard and understood, and every child receives care that is clear, supportive, and genuinely reassuring for them.

Creating an Exceptional Patient Experience

A clinical visit should feel welcoming and supportive, not routine or cold. From the moment you arrive, we want you and your child to feel guided, assisted, and cared for in a space filled with earthy tones, natural materials, and a comforting sense of adventure.
