Pediatric Surgery

 Dr. Rajat Gupta

If your child has an illness, injury, or disease that requires surgery, a pediatric surgeon has the experience and qualifications to treat your child. Surgical problems seen by pediatric surgeons are often quite different from those commonly seen by adult or general surgeons. Special training in pediatric surgery is important. Children are not just small adults. They cannot always say what is bothering them. They cannot always answer medical questions, and are not always able to be patient and helpful during a medical examination. If your pediatrician suggests that your child see a pediatric surgeon, then you can consult us anytime. We ensure that your child gets the best surgical and perioperative care possible in Kanpur.

Dr. Rajat Gupta is available round the clock to provide emergency services like foreign body removal and trauma care. Minimal invasive surgery that includes laparoscopy, cystoscopy, thoracoscopy, bronchoscopy and image guided procedures are routinely done in the department. laparoscopic surgeries minimise scar and enable faster recovery. Presence of a neonatal and pediatric intensive care unit (NICU and PICU) enables the surgeons to take care of children with complex surgical problems. In such situations the care plan is done in consultation with the pediatric or neonatal intensivists. Most of the routine surgeries like Inguinal and umbilical Hernia, undescended testis, circumcision, cystiscopy are done as day care procedures, which means that the child is discharged on the same day of surgery.
