Dr. Shashikant Wali, Consultant Neonatologist & Pediatric Intensivist at Yashodhara Super Speciality Hospital, provides advanced and timely treatment for birth asphyxia, helping protect your baby’s brain and overall health.

Birth asphyxia is a serious condition that occurs when a baby does not receive enough oxygen before, during, or immediately after birth. Immediate medical care is critical to prevent long-term complications and ensure better recovery.

What is Birth Asphyxia?
