Pediatric Department
Paediatrics is a medical field that focuses on the health and medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. Paediatricians are physicians who provide not only medical care for children who are ill but also preventive health services like vaccinations for healthy children.

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.
