Pediatrics Hospital in Pokhara
Specialist children’s care from newborn through adolescence — vaccinations, growth monitoring, common illness, asthma, behaviour and 24-hour pediatric emergency cover at A&B International Hospital.
Introduction
Children are not small adults. Their illnesses present differently, their medications need different doses, and their parents deserve clear answers — not vague reassurance.
At A&B International Hospital, our pediatric department is led by consultant pediatricians who handle everything from routine well-baby visits and full national vaccinations to acute illnesses, asthma management and 24-hour pediatric emergencies. Our doctors take time with families and explain every step.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you give all the national programme vaccines?
Yes — BCG, OPV, pentavalent, PCV, measles-rubella, JE, DPT booster, TD, fIPV — all stocked and given at the right intervals. We also offer optional vaccines like rotavirus, varicella, HPV and flu.
My child has a fever — when should I worry?
Bring an infant under 3 months with any fever immediately. For older children, come in if fever is over 39°C, lasts more than 48 hours, or is associated with poor feeding, listlessness, breathing difficulty or rash.
Does my child really need an inhaler for asthma?
Inhalers (used correctly, with a spacer) are the safest, most effective treatment for asthma — far better than syrups. We teach the technique and review it at every visit.
Do you handle pediatric emergencies at night?
Yes. Pediatrician on call 24/7 with the rest of the emergency team. For convulsions, severe breathing difficulty or accidents — come straight in or call our ambulance.
My child has delayed milestones — what should I do?
Book a consultation. Early evaluation makes a real difference. We assess, investigate where needed, and refer to pediatric physiotherapy or developmental specialists as required.

“Vaccinations always on time, with reminders. Doctor remembers my daughter every visit. We never feel rushed.”

Service Coverage in Pokhara
We serve patients from across Pokhara and surrounding areas:
Children Are Not Small Adults
Children present illness differently, deteriorate faster, and recover faster than adults — and they cannot always explain what is wrong. Paediatric care is a distinct specialty for exactly these reasons: medication is weight-based, examination is patience-based, and reassurance of the family is part of the treatment, not an extra. A good paediatric consultation treats the child and informs the parents.
Prevention: Vaccination and Growth Monitoring
The highest-value paediatric care is preventive. Completing the national immunisation schedule on time, tracking growth and development, and catching deviations early prevents far more suffering than treating advanced illness later. We keep the full national vaccine schedule plus optional vaccines, with cold-chain integrity maintained.
Fever and When to Worry
Most childhood fevers are self-limiting, but some are not. Any fever in an infant under three months needs immediate assessment. In older children, seek care for fever above 39°C, lasting beyond 48 hours, or with poor feeding, lethargy, breathing difficulty or a rash. Knowing the warning signs prevents both panic and dangerous delay.
Costs, Emergencies and Insurance
Consultation and vaccination rates are published openly. A paediatrician is on call 24/7 for emergencies such as convulsions, severe breathing difficulty and accidents. We work with most major insurers and coordinate paediatric subspecialty referrals when needed, including pediatric physiotherapy.

Do you give all national programme vaccines?
Yes — the full national schedule plus optional vaccines such as rotavirus, varicella, HPV and flu, with cold-chain maintained.
When should I worry about a fever?
Any fever in an infant under three months needs immediate review. In older children, high or prolonged fever with lethargy, poor feeding or breathing difficulty warrants prompt care.
Is an inhaler safe for childhood asthma?
Yes — correctly used with a spacer it is the safest, most effective treatment, far better than syrups. We teach and review technique.
Do you handle paediatric emergencies at night?
Yes, a paediatrician is on call 24/7 with the emergency team.
My child has delayed milestones — what now?
Book an assessment. Early evaluation makes a real difference; we refer to developmental and physiotherapy services when needed.

A Parent’s Guide to When to Bring Your Child In
Parents are the first to notice when something is wrong, and trusting that instinct matters. Bring an infant under three months with any fever immediately. For older children, seek care for fever above 39°C or lasting beyond two days, poor feeding or fluid intake, unusual drowsiness or floppiness, fast or laboured breathing, a rash that does not fade under pressure, repeated vomiting, or any convulsion. Most childhood illness is mild and self-limiting — but knowing these warning signs prevents both unnecessary panic and dangerous delay.
Prevention: The Highest-Value Care
The most powerful paediatric care is preventive. Completing the national immunisation schedule on time protects against diseases that are far harder to treat than to prevent, and routine growth and development monitoring catches problems while they are still easy to address. We keep the full national vaccine schedule plus optional vaccines, maintain strict cold-chain integrity, and send reminders so doses are not missed.
Costs, Emergencies and Insurance
Consultation and vaccination prices are published openly. A paediatrician is on call 24 hours a day for emergencies such as convulsions, breathing difficulty and accidents, and we coordinate paediatric subspecialty referrals — including pediatric physiotherapy — when needed. Most major insurers are accepted.
Further Questions
Is it normal for my child to get frequent colds?
Several mild infections a year is normal as immunity develops. We assess if infections are unusually frequent, severe or slow to clear.
Can I delay or space out vaccinations?
The schedule is timed for best protection. Delays leave children vulnerable; discuss any concerns with us rather than skipping doses.
My child is a fussy eater — should I worry?
Often not, if growth is on track. We monitor growth objectively and advise when intervention is genuinely needed.
