Upfront cost estimate & specialist options for Paediatric Heart Surgery

Your medical information stays confidential.

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 appropriate 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.

Specialised paediatric heart centers in India have child-friendly infrastructure, Paediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Units (PCICUs), and experienced paediatric cardiothoracic surgeons. These multidisciplinary teams perform complex procedures; outcomes depend on each child’s condition.

Why opt for Paediatric Heart Surgery in India?

When a child’s health is at stake, timely care is essential. Paediatric cardiac institutions in India provide prompt access to experienced surgical teams and specialized intensive care without long waiting times. For families traveling from the Gulf, Africa, Bangladesh, and beyond, India offers paediatric cardiac care, surgical expertise, and nursing support at a fraction of the cost of treatment in many Western countries—making care accessible when children need it.
