Frequently Asked Questions
What ages do you treat?
Krishna Children’s Hospital cares for newborns, infants, children, and teenagers up to 16 years of age.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
For routine visits, an appointment is preferred. For urgent concerns, the emergency team can see your child without prior booking.
When should I see a pediatric neurologist?
If your child has seizures, repeated staring spells, loss of skills, severe headaches, or unusual movements, a pediatric neurology visit is recommended.
What should I bring for my first neurology visit?
Bring previous reports, medicines, vaccination records, and if possible, videos of events like seizures, unusual movements, or behaviors.
Can children outgrow seizures?
Some children do outgrow certain seizure types, but others need long‑term treatment and follow‑up, so specialist review is important.
How do I know if my child’s development is on track?
Compare milestones for movement, speech, play, and learning with age‑based guides; if delays worry you, book a development or neurology consult.
What happens if my baby needs the NICU?
Your baby will be monitored by a neonatal team in a specialised unit, and you’ll be encouraged to visit, participate in care, and ask questions.
Can parents stay with their child in the hospital?
Yes. A parent or primary caregiver is encouraged to stay or visit frequently, as family presence supports recovery and lowers stress.
Are vaccines really necessary if my child is healthy?
Yes. Vaccines protect healthy children from serious infections they might meet later and are a key part of preventive pediatric care.
What if my child is afraid of hospitals?
Staff use play, simple language, and child‑friendly spaces to reduce fear. You can bring comfort items and stay with your child whenever possible.
