Pediatrics
Child Health and Diseases covers all illnesses and health issues that affect an individual from birth until the end of adolescence. In this field, social and environmental factors also play an important role, encompassing a wide range of research, practice, and services. Continuous health check-ups from birth allow monitoring of children’s development and support their healthy growth. Early diagnosis is especially crucial in pediatric diseases.
In our Pediatrics Clinic, we provide care for children from newborns up to 18 years old, assisting both in the diagnosis and treatment of illnesses as well as in preventive health services.
