Pediatrics

The paediatrics department at Shalamar has been serving the children of the surrounding community since 1982. Its panel of highly trained paediatricians along with state-of-the-art facilities like the NICU, paediatric wards, vaccination Centre and emergency department are well equipped to handle all aspects of child healthcare. We also have a dedicated emergency room which accommodates over 200 children every day.

Our research portfolio has grown tremendously over the past several years. The department launched a metabolic disorder screening programme in collaboration with Zahra Beau (ZB) Foundation. In 2017, the department also partnered with the National TB Control Centre to spearhead a national screening program for paediatric tuberculosis.

We are committed to improving the physical and emotional development of children as we offer personalised care in an ethical, supportive and child-friendly atmosphere.
