Safe and Personalised Surgical Care for Children
The Paediatric Surgery service at Sitaram Bhartia Institute of Science and Research provides surgical care for children in a supportive, child-friendly, and family-centred environment.
Our team supports children through outpatient consultations, referrals, second opinions, pre-surgical evaluations, inpatient care, laparoscopic surgery, urological procedures, hernia surgery, appendectomy, post-operative care, PICU support where required, and emergency surgical services.
We understand that surgery for a child can feel overwhelming for parents. Dedicated coordinators help families with appointment planning, reliable estimates, pre-operative preparation, admission guidance, documentation, and follow-up coordination, making the treatment journey clearer and more comfortable.
Our approach focuses on accurate diagnosis, child safety, personalised treatment planning, minimally invasive techniques wherever clinically appropriate, and avoiding surgery where possible.

Referrals and Second Opinions
Parents may consult the Paediatric Surgery team when surgery has been advised elsewhere or when they want a second opinion before proceeding.
The doctor may review the diagnosis, reports, treatment options, timing of surgery, possible risks, expected recovery, and whether minimally invasive treatment is suitable.
Telemedicine Services
Telemedicine services may be available for suitable follow-ups, report reviews, counselling, and non-emergency concerns.
This can help parents access guidance more conveniently before or after surgery, where clinically appropriate.
