Childhood Infections & Acute Illness
Rapid diagnosis and judicious medical treatment for seasonal and acute childhood illnesses.
Children experience frequent viral infections as their developing immune systems mature. Our clinic practices strict antibiotic stewardship—distinguishing self-limiting viral fevers from bacterial infections requiring targeted therapy. We manage fevers, coughs, wheezing, croup, flu, dengue, gastrointestinal infections, and asthma.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does every fever in a child require an antibiotic?
No! Over 85% of childhood fevers are caused by viral infections that cannot be treated with antibiotics. Antibiotics given for viral infections do not lower fever and can cause side effects like diarrhea and antibiotic resistance.
What are the danger signs when my child has a fever?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child has difficulty breathing, is unusually drowsy or unarousable, refuses all fluids, develops a dark purple rash, or has a fever in an infant under 3 months.
