    The first few moments and days after birth are extremely important for a newborn’s health and development. 

    While many babies are born healthy, some may require specialized care due to prematurity, complications during delivery, or underlying health conditions. In such cases, neonatal care becomes vital to ensure the baby receives the right medical attention and support from the very beginning.

    A neonatologist offers the appropriate support and care to newborns, ensuring their improved general health and well-being. 

    SGVP Holistic Hospital is equipped with the best neonatologist in Ahmedabad, providing optimal care to newborns in a safe and secure environment.

    Who is a Neonatologist?

    A neonatologist is a medical specialist who provides medical care to newborn infants, especially those who are premature, critically ill, or have complex health conditions. They provide specialized care in NICUs (neonatal intensive care units). 

    A neonatologist is a pediatrician who receives specialized training in neonatology, which is caring for newborn babies with diseases or injuries that need special care.

    What Does a Neonatologist Do?

    At SGVP Holistic Hospital, our skilled neonatology doctor in Ahmedabad offers specialized attention and care to babies born with injuries, severe illnesses, or birth disorders. 

    Our neonatologists may become involved during your pregnancy itself if a congenital disorder is diagnosed in the fetus before birth. They work in collaboration with obstetricians to ensure that sick babies get all the medical care they need at birth.

    Sometimes, the neonatologists get involved only after the baby is born due to an unexpected health condition or injury.

    Our neonatologist provides the following key facilities and services:

    • Diagnosis and treatment of illnesses, infections, and disorders in newborns.
    • Manage and coordinate newborn care, treatment, and surgery.
    • Orders imaging tests, like X-rays, ultrasounds, or echocardiograms, blood tests, and other diagnostic tests to monitor conditions or organ function.
    • Ensure that ill babies get proper nutrients.
    • Help in the delivery room and provide immediate care to an infant having health conditions at birth.
    • Consult with maternal-fetal medicine specialists, obstetricians, and pediatricians regarding infant care.
    •  Offer support to families and parents during the NICU stay of their baby.

    When Should You See a Neonatologist?

    You will first need to see a neonatologist during your pregnancy if there is a diagnosis of a congenital disability in the fetus. These may include structural problems in one of the organs of the fetus or an inherited genetic problem, such as cystic fibrosis.

    A neonatologist works alongside obstetricians, gynecologists, and maternal-fetal specialists to help provide baby care before, during, and immediately after delivery. A neonatologist could also be required in cases of unexpected injuries or health conditions detected at birth.
