Paediatrics is a speciality which looks after the health of infants, children, and adolescents. The professional of this field is an expert in curing and treating the diseases in children and providing special care to them.

Paediatricians can diagnose and treat a variety of conditions such as respiratory infections, asthma and allergies, infectious diseases like hand-foot-mouth disease, juvenile diabetes, genetic and developmental disorders such as down syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism etc.

Paediatric specialists have focused training in the physical, emotional, and behavioural requirements of children. Since they see and treat only children, they have much more experience in recognizing and treating childhood illnesses.

From the time your baby is born until they turn 18-20 years of age, a Paediatrician is consulted to get more specialized care of their body and health conditions. Once consulted, they can guide you with appropriate treatment plans and periodic visits so that you can keep track of your child’s care as they grow.
