Neonatology

Your newborn's health is as crucial to the KD Blossom as it is to you. Our team of neonatologists and paediatricians provides the best care for your baby!

Neonatology focuses on preventing and treating issues that arise during the foetal, intrapartum, or neonatal periods. Our neonatologists at KD Blossom offer expert medical care and provide information and support to newborn families. We offer a comprehensive range of services to address various health challenges that newborns may face. Our experienced team is available 24/7 to care for critically ill premature and full-term infants. We are committed to high-quality, family-centered care because we understand how important your baby's health is and the challenges and fears that come with your newborn's health issues. Common reasons for NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) care include premature birth, birth asphyxia, pulmonary hypoplasia, low birth weight, sepsis, and congenital malformations. KD Hospital has a "state-of-the-art" level III-B NICU set-up, with an attached perinatal centre that includes foetal medicine, high-risk obstetrics, and IVF under one roof.
