    I guess you would want a paediatrician or paediatric endocrinologist

    Google ',Saizen' made by Merck Serono .this is recombinant HGH and is certainly available in hongkong .if your child's height standard deviation is -2 or below then unassisted growth rates will probably not allow adult height within normal adult range .you need to initiate the therapy early to get a good outcomes .

    ummm maybe get a medical practitioner's advice first - HGH is tricky stuff with side effects...
