Why Manipal Hospitals?
The treatment of an unwell child is completely unlike the treatment of an adult. The dosage of medication must be adjusted according to weight. Symptoms that might be easily identifiable in an adult, such as limping or headaches, may indicate another ailment in a child, depending on the child's developmental stage. Our paediatric team at Manipal Hospital Hebbal ensures this unique approach in all consultations. Families seeking the best child hospital in Hebbal, Bangalore, find our programme anchored in:
- Consultant paediatricians with subspecialty training in neonatology, paediatric pulmonology, paediatric cardiology, and developmental paediatrics
- A neonatal intensive care unit equipped to manage preterm infants from twenty-eight weeks gestation, with continuous monitoring and respiratory support
- Growth and development monitoring that tracks not just height and weight but also speech, motor skills, and social milestones against expected norms
- Phlebotomists and nursing staff specifically trained in paediatric venipuncture and procedures, using distraction techniques that reduce distress
- A child-friendly waiting area with visual distractions and a calm colour palette, because a relaxed child allows a more accurate examination

Frequently Asked Questions
A well-baby visit usually takes place soon after birth, when your baby is two weeks old, and then every two months – at two, four, six, nine, and twelve months of age.
Place the child on their side on a safe surface, do not put anything in their mouth, and time the seizure. Most febrile seizures stop within minutes. Bring the child to our emergency department afterwards so that the source of the fever can be identified and treated.
Six or more wet nappies daily after the first week, regular bowel movements, and steady weight gain indicate adequate intake. At our child hospital in Hebbal, Bangalore, our paediatricians assess feeding adequacy by plotting weight on growth charts and observing a feed when concerns arise.
At one year of age, the child should babble intentionally and perhaps speak a word or two. By eighteen months, the child should have learned several words. If the child does not reach these developmental stages, our developmental paediatrician can evaluate his/her hearing and language abilities.
The vaccines go through rigorous testing and are found to be safe before use. Some of the side effects that may occur include low-grade fever, irritability, and pain where the vaccination took place within one or two days. Severe side effects are very rare.
