Paediatric Cardiology

Heart ailments are often thought of as an affliction of the adults. Unfortunately, children too suffer from, for no fault of their own, serious, and even life-threatening cardiac conditions. Therefore Dr. Purvez Grant deemed it necessary that Ruby Hall Clinic should have a dedicated Paediatric Cardiology unit.

From accurate and timely diagnosis to appropriate and proficient treatment, the paediatric cardiology unit provides end-to-end cardiac care right from 18 weeks of gestation.
