A Level-III NICU is an advanced neonatal intensive care unit in Dehradun capable of providing continuous life support and comprehensive care for extremely premature babies and critically ill newborns. This means our facility has the necessary medical technology, such as ventilators and multi-parameter monitors, and is staffed around the clock by experienced healthcare professionals trained in neonatal care.

Our Neonatal Team

Our NICU and paediatric care is led by experienced specialists dedicated to child health. Dr. N. Mathur (MBBS, DNB (Paediatrics)) focuses on newborn care and NICU management, while Dr. U.
