The Department of Paediatric Surgery at Aster Women and Children Hospitals offers advanced care, in general paediatric surgery, neonatal surgery, paediatric urology, thoracic surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, minimal invasive surgery, and endoscopy until the age of 18 years. The paediatric surgical patient requires tender care with delicate skills and diligent follow-up as the newborn, baby, toddler grows through adolescence into a mature adult. As paediatric surgeons we learn resilience from children and are grateful for the opportunity to serve them. The Department of Paediatric Surgery is a specialised department offering high-quality care for all surgical problems in neonates, infants, older children and adolescents. The surgical team is led by senior and experienced Consultants, who have been trained in leading hospitals in India and overseas.
The Department also has several follow-up clinics including antenatal counselling for congenital malformations. We have keen enthusiasm about following up on cases until they reach adolescence and, in some instances, even after adulthood where meticulous surgery is required. The department works closely with the Departments of Paediatrics, Neonatology, Radiology and Oncology. A fully functional Neonatal ICU and Paediatric ICU are the main facilities available for critically ill children.
