Giving a little heart the freedom to run, play, and grow.

Through every question, every opinion, every unfamiliar turn, Shifara Health’s experts guide you with care.

You should never face this alone.

Discovering that your child requires heart surgery is a moment no parent is ever fully prepared for. Navigating a complex diagnosis—and arranging care far from home—requires a level of strength that can feel overwhelming. Shifara Health exists so that this journey, and the responsibility of finding the best care for your child, is never something you have to carry alone. 

What is Paediatric Heart Surgery?

Paediatric heart surgery encompasses a range of specialized surgical procedures performed on newborns, infants, children, and adolescents to correct congenital heart defects (structural abnormalities present at birth) and acquired heart conditions. These procedures range from open-heart surgery for complex conditions—such as Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), and Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA)—to closed-heart procedures and minimally invasive catheter-based interventions.

India’s leading paediatric heart centers are equipped with world-class, child-friendly infrastructure, state-of-the-art Paediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Units (PCICUs), and internationally recognized paediatric cardiothoracic surgeons. Together, these multidisciplinary teams perform complex, life-saving procedures with outstanding outcomes, giving children the opportunity to lead healthy, active lives
