Pediatrics (or paediatrics) is a field of healthcare that focuses on children. Pediatricians deal with physical, mental, emotional and social health of a child right from birth to young adulthood. Also called a child specialist, baby doctor, toddler doctor or children doctor, a pediatrician monitors the growth and development of infants, children and adolescents.
There are generally two kinds of pediatricians in Mumbai: general pediatricians and pediatric specialists. A child specialist in Mumbai has more training in and knowledge of specific fields or areas in medical care related to kids. These specialty pediatrics consist of:
Visit or consult with a pediatrician for two reasons:
Experts recommend that you book a consult with a pediatrician in Mumbai within one week of the baby’s birth. This is called a well-visit as it is a general check-up. It involves a physical exam, taking measurements of the baby, and monitoring the newborn’s development.
While you can visit a paediatrician right after the birth of an infant, be it 3-7 days after birth, you can continue to take your child for a visit until he or she is 18 years of age. While there is no specified age limit to stop seeing a child specialist, your paediatrician can help you decide when you need to switch to a general physician for adults.
A general pediatrician does not usually perform surgery. A pediatrician diagnoses and treats children using non-invasive methods. Surgeries like those related to birth defects, hernia, gallbladder, appendicitis and others are performed by a pediatric surgeon. Simply search for ‘pediatric surgeon near me’ to find a pediatrician with the training required to perform minor or major surgeries.
You can find your nearest pediatrician or the best child hospital in Mumbai using the Bajaj Finserv Health app. If you require specialists under the branch of pediatric medicine, you can also search for terms like ‘pediatric neurologist in Mumbai’ or ‘pediatric endocrinologist near me’. You can also book an online doctor consultation to get medical advice in Mumbai without leaving your home or schedule an in-person visit to a pediatric clinic near you.
Using the Bajaj Finserv Health App or platform not only allows you to find the best paediatrician near you, but also book an online pediatrician consultation to address your kid’s medical needs without stepping out of the comfort of home. In addition, the app has a vaccination calendar recommended by the Indian Association of Paediatrics so you can track, receive reminders and get vaccines to maintain your child’s health based on age and gender. You can also enjoy deals on check-ups, lab tests, and insurance via the managed care packages offered by Bajaj Finserv Health to address healthcare for your child and the whole family holistically.
While a pediatrician offers care specifically to newborns, children and teens, a general physician treats those who are 18 years of age and older. A pediatrician has special training and skills in dealing with children and their holistic development, and is thus recommended for kids from infancy to young adulthood.
