Overview
“History will judge by the difference we make in the everyday lives of children:” –Nelson Mandela
Children cannot always express themselves as adults do. They may be unable to articulate how they are feeling and may be unwilling to sit through a medical examination. Paediatric Surgeons have the expertise to examine and treat children in a non-threatening way that makes them relaxed and cooperative. The Paediatric Surgery department of M.S. Ramaiah Memorial Hospital assures all the special expertise, tender treatment and medical care that children need. At M. S. Ramaiah Memorial Hospital, we have equipment and facilities specially designed for neonates and children. We have a team of experienced Paediatric Surgeons who along with expert Anaesthesiologists can handle all types of child- related surgical problems from planned surgeries to emergencies. The Paediatric surgical team is dedicated to provide care and services of the highest order.
