About the Institute
The Post Graduate Institute of Child Health (PGICH) formerly known as Super Specialty Paediatric Hospital and Postgraduate Teaching Institute (an autonomous Institute under the Govt of UP), located in Sector 30, Noida, is a unique facility conceptualized at par with the western children hospitals to provide high-quality Pediatric health care, postgraduate and postdoctoral teaching and training and molecular biological research in various branches of Pediatrics and Pediatric surgery.
Children are the future of the nation. Every child has the right to have primary and tertiary care in the country. India with a population of over 1300 million, has over 500 million children under 14 years of age and about 80-90 million of these are in Uttar Pradesh alone. Despite progress being made, almost 80% of children do not have access to specialized medical and surgical care. Therefore, it is most appropriate to develop a highly specialized centre to provide the state of the art facilities for medical care for rare diseases, surgery of newborns, children and adolescents, dialysis, organ transplants and research (stem cell, cyto-genetics, tissue engineering, bioinformatics, artificial intelligence) under one roof with the dedicated full-time faculty, researchers and the staff.
The institute is in its infancy and developing phase, with 16 clinical and basic disciplines running the OPD, indoors, operation theatres, laboratory services and a radiology department. Several departments are running specialized clinics in the afternoon. Presently advanced transfusion medicine department (Blood Centre) and 8-bedded Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant Centre are already functional. Apart from that, several new departments and centres (Pediatric cancer centre, renal and Liver transplant centre, Skill development centre, Hypospadias and DSD centre), are being planned to start in future. In due course of time, the institute will not only train over 100 MD/MS, DM and M.Ch resident doctors but also Ph.D scholars to contribute each year to the human capital along with the highly specialized pediatric consultants, residents and the researchers in India.
The training of the doctors, nurses and other paramedical staff is an integrated component of this institute. Guest Lectures, symposia, seminars, CME Programs and workshops are held regularly. The institute actively participates in Government programs related to children ( Ayushman Bharat, RBSK, and others).
The faculty and the staff are committed to taking this institute to greater heights. We remain open to suggestions and constructive criticisms from the public in our quest to achieve excellence, keeping specialized Pediatric care affordable so that the public benefits.
