The Department of Child Health and Diseases, also known as Pediatrics, is a branch of science that deals with the diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment of patients from birth through adolescence. In this unit, we monitor infants from the moment they are in the womb through mental-motor development, nutrition, vaccination, and preventive medicine programs from 0-18 years of age. For emergency patients, we have a medical specialist on call outside office hours.

Baby-Friendly Hospital

This hospital was awarded the title of "Baby Friendly Hospital" after completing the work required by the "Baby Friendly" initiative jointly implemented by UNICEF and the World Health Organization. This program aims to promote breastfeeding, increase mothers' awareness of breastfeeding, establish proper breastfeeding practices, and make breastfeeding successful and long-lasting.

Newborn Intensive Care Unit

Patients are meticulously cared for in the fully-equipped Neonatal Intensive Care Unit using state-of-the-art equipment.

We have a neonatal intensivist and the unit is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for the newborns in need of intensive care.
