Children bring joy and colour to our world, but they can also be demanding and difficult to understand. DrParang.Com is a site by a pediatrician, for parents. It has information about children, their care, diseases, health promotion, and other childhood issues. It is meant to fulfil information needs about children, but it is not meant as a guide to the dangerous practice of self-treatment.
I started Mehta Childcare in 1990. This year, my practice turns 21!
The author of this site, I am a qualified pediatrician in primary care practice. My clinic provides diagnostic and curative services for sick children, as well as health care, immunisation and advice to healthy children. I look after children from birth to the age of fifteen years.

This site offers information about babies and children -- their care, treatment, diseases, illnesses, and other medical concerns. It is meant only to satisfy the information needs of parents about their children's health, diseases, vaccination, and related subjects. While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy of the material about diseases, illnesses, and treatment, the author accepts no responsibility for, and certainly does not recommend, the use of this information for the treatment of sick children.
No information available on this web page, or on others, can replace the examination and treatment by an expert doctor or pediatrician. It is not sensible to try to diagnose your child's disease off a web page (or from a book), and if your child is acutely ill, it is best go to a hospital immediately.
