Department of Neonatology & Paediatrics

Neonatology is a subspecialty of paediatrics that focuses on the medical care of newborn infants, especially those who are ill or born prematurely. Neonatologists are specially trained physicians who provide medical care for newborns in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and other settings. They are skilled in managing a wide range of conditions that affect newborns, including respiratory distress syndrome, infections, birth defects, and complications of prematurity. Neonatologists work closely with other members of the healthcare team, including neonatal nurses, respiratory therapists, and paediatric surgeons, to provide comprehensive care for newborns and support their families during what can be a challenging time.
Our Neonatology unit is all about care, development, and disease prevention in newborn infants. At Kinder Hospital, your baby is in the expert care of well experienced newborn care specialists or neonatologists. Our unit has advanced technologies that help for a speedy recovery of newborn infants.
Our newborn centre has a modern Level III NICU at Kinder Hospital. It has the most advanced tools and technologies for care and support of your baby. Our team of expert consultants and registered nurses follow international standards of newborn care. This ensures the best care even for the most complicated cases of the newborns.
