Department of Pediatrics & Neonatology
A newborn who won’t stop crying, a toddler who swallowed something they shouldn’t have, a child struggling to breathe through an asthma flare, parents don’t get to plan when these happen. Dr. Niraj Kumar Arora runs Pediatrics & Neonatology at Shri Balaji Aarogyam Hospital in Kurukshetra, covering everything from a Level III NICU for the smallest, most fragile newborns to routine vaccination visits, without families needing to travel to Delhi or Chandigarh for serious cases.

From Birth to the Growing-Up Years
A one-day-old baby and a seven-year-old with a broken arm don’t need the same kind of care, but both fall under this department. Intensive neonatal support and the everyday visits every child needs happen under the same team.
24x7 Pediatric Emergency Care
Covers emergencies specific to children, including poisoning cases, available at any hour rather than only during clinic timings.
Level III NICU
Intensive care for newborns who need it most, premature babies, low birth weight, or babies with breathing or feeding difficulties right after birth.
Level III PICU
Intensive care for older infants and children who are critically ill, separate from the newborn-focused NICU.
Pediatric Allergy & Asthma Management
Ongoing management for children with asthma or allergic conditions, not just treatment during a flare-up.
Vaccination Clinic
Scheduled immunizations tracked against your child's age and due dates.
Growth & Development Assessment
Regular checks on whether a child is growing and developing as expected for their age, catching delays early rather than after they've become harder to address.
OVERVIEW
The First Six Years Matter Most
A baby born early or underweight needs a completely different level of care than a five-year-old due for their next vaccine. This department handles both without sending a family somewhere else halfway through. The NICU and PICU exist for the cases that can’t wait, breathing difficulty in a newborn, a critically ill toddler. Everything else, vaccination, growth checks, feeding concerns, is the steady, ongoing side of pediatric care that most families actually use most often.
Poisoning cases get specific mention here for a reason. Small children get into things they shouldn’t, and it’s one of the more common pediatric emergencies that catches parents off guard. Having that covered as part of 24×7 emergency care, not treated as a rare exception, matters.
Level III NICU & PICU
Intensive care for the most critical newborn and pediatric cases, available locally.
Poisoning Management Included
A specific part of 24x7 emergency care, not an afterthought.
Ongoing Asthma & Allergy Care
Managed as a continuing condition, not just treated when a flare-up happens.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a NICU and a PICU?
A NICU is specifically for newborns, usually premature babies or those with breathing, feeding, or weight issues right after birth. A PICU treats critically ill infants and children beyond the newborn period. Both are intensive care, just for different age groups and conditions.
My child swallowed something they shouldn't have. What should I do?
Come in immediately rather than waiting to see if symptoms develop. Poisoning management is part of 24×7 pediatric emergency care here, and speed matters more than trying to identify exactly what was swallowed before you leave home.
How do I know if my child's asthma needs ongoing management, not just an inhaler during attacks?
If your child is having frequent flare-ups, waking up at night with coughing or breathlessness, or relying on a rescue inhaler regularly, that’s a sign the asthma needs a proper long-term management plan rather than just handling each episode as it comes.
Which vaccines does my child need and when?
This depends on their age and the vaccination schedule they’re following. The vaccination clinic tracks this against your child’s specific due dates, so it’s worth bringing any previous vaccination records to the first visit.
My child seems behind on milestones compared to other kids their age. Should I be worried?
Every child develops at a slightly different pace, but a proper growth and development assessment is the way to find out whether it’s within normal range or needs closer attention. Catching a delay early generally makes it easier to address.
