Melb teddy bear hospital for kids

If you have a bear with a sore head or your teddy is feeling under the weather, you can now visit a teddy bear hospital in Melbourne.

In an effort to reduce children's fear of medical consultations, medical students from Melbourne University will hold a teddy bear clinic at Chadstone shopping centre.

The teddy consultations will teach children about health and anatomy during the first weekend in August and all money raised will go to the Royal Children's Hospital.
