Adolescent Clinic

Adolescence is a critical period of transition between childhood and adulthood during which an individual undergoes major physical and psychological changes. Adolescents are generally considered healthy; however, they have specific healthcare needs, which differ distinctly from those of children and adults. To meet those challenges, the field of Adolescent Pediatric has emerged as a subspecialty of Paediatrics.

Services

Adolescent Paediatric service provides care to adolescents from 9 to 18 years of age.We strive to meet the developmentally unique needs of the adolescents and their parents by providing excellent outpatient and inpatient services in an age appropriate setting.

We work closely with other specialties in the hospital to ensure the adolescent is not only receiving the best care possible, but that treatment is tailored specifically for their needs.

Our Services include:

  • Teen Immunization.
  • Pubertal problem; both male & female.
  • Acute illnesses.
  • Chronic medical conditions; asthma, obesity, diabetes etc.
  • Education for patients & families regarding adolescence.
  • Inpatient care.
