We lay emphasis on minimum medical interventions by assessing the impact of every action and intervening only when absolutely necessary.

A child who comes to us for surgery is looked after by the entire team at Sitaram Bhartia. Each of our qualified pediatricians is available round the clock to coordinate with respective pediatric specialists if the need arises.
