The Pediatric department was the very first department to be established at Bahrain Specialist Hospital, and since then it has continued to provide comprehensive, world class pediatric and neo-natal care. At every instance, we understand that treating a sick child is more than doing tests, giving medicine or performing surgery. We at Bahrain Specialist Hospital take the responsibility of providing the best care to your child.
The department has a faculty of highly skilled and experienced pediatricians with different sub specialties, each and every one of whom is dedicated to the care of children, from the tiniest premature infant to the critically injured adolescent.
The pediatric department is divided into the following sections:
Pediatric Emergency section: Bahrain Specialist Hospital has a separate pediatric emergency section. It is covered around the clock by pediatric specialists with facilities for active resuscitation and observation beds.
