For Dr. Abhishek S. Gowdar, good pediatric care begins with listening—to the child, to the parents, and to what the clinical picture is telling us. His approach combines careful medical judgment with empathy and clear communication, providing comprehensive care for newborns and children across every stage of growth and development.

He specialises in caring for preterm and critically ill newborns, including extremely preterm infants and babies requiring advanced respiratory support or management of complex cardiac and pulmonary conditions.

Dr. Gowdar completed his MBBS at Bangalore Medical College & Research Institute, MD in Pediatrics at Maulana Azad Medical College, University of Delhi, and DM in Neonatology at AIIMS Raipur. His clinical interests include neonatal hemodynamics, neonatal neurology, high-risk newborn follow-up, point-of-care ultrasound, and emerging applications of artificial intelligence in healthcare. He has presented his research and clinical case reports at national and international scientific forums.

He believes that good pediatric care goes beyond treating illness—it is about supporting every child’s healthy growth, development, and wellbeing. He values listening carefully, explaining clearly, and involving parents in decisions, while ensuring that every intervention is purposeful and evidence-based.

His approach to medicine is simple: treat every child as you would want your own child to be treated—with clinical excellence, honesty, patience, and genuine care. Do what is necessary, keep it simple, and always put the child’s best interests first.
