Vision: The treatment to most of the congenital anomalies and diseases in the children is evolving, with evidence, research and the modernization of resources and we believe that it is crucial to ensure that all children, regardless of their circumstances, have access to the best possible care and treatment. Collaboration with other disciplines is key in ensuring comprehensive care for pediatric patients. By working together and learning from each other, we can develop more effective and holistic treatment approaches for both common and rare pediatric cases.Creating a Center of Excellence in Pediatric Surgery not only provides hope for the children in this region of Punjab but also sets a standard for excellence in pediatric care that can have ripple effects beyond the immediate community.
