Our expert team of neonatologists and pediatric specialists is committed to providing a seamless, stress-free screening process and giving you peace of mind about your newborn’s health.
The Power of Newborn Screening
Most newborns appear perfectly healthy at birth, but some can have treatable conditions that may not be apparent for weeks or months. Newborn screening is a simple and non-invasive way to:
Identify Hidden Conditions
Prevent Complications
Provide Peace of Mind
Offer a Child-Friendly Environment
Our Comprehensive Newborn Screening Program in Bangalore
We offer a full range of screening services, adhering to the latest national and international guidelines.
This is a blood test performed 24-48 hours after birth to screen for a variety of treatable conditions.
- How it’s done: A few drops of blood are taken from your baby’s heel and sent to a specialized lab for analysis.
- What it screens for: We screen for conditions such as congenital hypothyroidism, phenylketonuria (PKU), and other metabolic disorders that, while rare, can have devastating effects if not treated early.
Hearing is vital for a child’s speech and language development.
- How it’s done: This simple and non-invasive test is performed while your baby is sleeping or quiet. A small, soft earphone is placed in the baby’s ear, and the test takes just a few minutes.
- What it screens for: It detects potential hearing loss, allowing for early intervention with hearing aids or other support to ensure your child’s language skills develop on track.
This screening is a simple, non-invasive test to check for critical congenital heart defects.
- How it’s done: A small, painless sensor is placed on your baby’s skin (usually on the hand and foot) to measure the oxygen level in their blood.
- What it screens for: It helps detect low oxygen levels that could be a sign of a severe heart defect, enabling our cardiology team to provide immediate care.
What Happens After Screening?
- Normal Results: If all results are normal, you can rest easy knowing that your baby has a healthy start.
- Abnormal Results: A “positive” or “abnormal” result does not necessarily mean your baby has the condition. It means we need to perform further, more specific tests to get a definitive diagnosis. Our team will contact you immediately and guide you through the next steps with clear, compassionate communication.

ckp2025-08-28Miracle Hospital needs to seriously improve its patient management.They don’t follow the given appointment time slots and allow random walk-ins, which causes unnecessary delays and inconvenience.Waiting for long hours with an infant is extremely painful and stressful. The reception desk appears helpless in handling this mismanagement and shows very little concern for patients’ issues. On top of that, the waiting room is highly uncomfortable, the AC wasn’t working, and there was hardly any space to sit, turning it into complete chaos. While the doctors are good and caring, even they seem helpless due to the poor system in place. The appointment booking process is outdated and difficult, with no proper app or mechanism to track slots. For a hospital that aims to provide care, such experiences make things worse for patients and attendants. Hope the management takes this feedback seriously and works on fixing these critical issues.
Partha Mishra2025-08-27I had called this hospital to check if there was an option for emergency pediatric checkup for my 9 months baby. Upon confirmation, we reached hospital and paid 1000 rupees at reception. We waited for 10 minutes and when we checked with nurse about the time, she mentioned that our waiting number was 7 and doctor is taking around 30 mins per child. So, as per her maths, it would take 3 hrs for our turn to come. Thats crazy considering it was not regular appointment but emergency visit and nobody can wait that longer. I told the receptionist to cancel the appointment & refund the amount but she was not at all cooperative and neither did she refund the amount to us. She never informed during payment that consultation would take that much time. We left this hospital and went to Motherhood Hospital for emergency consultation. This hospital is a fraud and service is pathetic. Typical local hospital type. Don't visit here. There is no one professional here. They don't refund money.
D S2025-08-25Management not good , sends favourite or know patients first don't follow appointment time.. doctors also suggest different doctor and hospital to see. There is no feeding room in mother's and child hospital. They have combined room for feeding as well as exray same room.. while feeding my baby they says can u feed later need to take test urgent.. as I saw that patient was not in hurry or emergency still they asked me to leave the room I have forcefully stop my baby from feeding to go out.. And also thr is parking problem. Two time visited hospital both the time very bad experience..
arati hitanalli2025-08-24Dr bala is not only knowledgeable but also approachable. I felt comfortable asking questions and discussing my concerns. She is knowledgeable, caring, and made me feel comfortable during my pragnency journey and she will give sufficient time for each patient.Thanks for your help. Doctors are so efficient and caring as well as all the Receptionist and Nurses. Overall I am very happy with miracle hospital throughout my pragnency. Highly recommend.
Lahari Rao2025-08-21From the time of arrival and through out the treatment Miracle hospital is very supportive. Dr.Ramya ma’am is very good, calm and guided us through properly. Sampoorna sister in emergency is very caring and took care really well.
One Plus2025-08-21Good
Dinesh Vemani2025-08-20The hospital is very clean and well maintained. The treatment provided was good, though I found it to be a bit on the expensive side. I would especially like to appreciate Nurse Sampurna for her excellent care. She was very kind, friendly, and caring towards patients. She went out of her way to ensure comfort and did her best in every possible way. Her positive attitude and warm approach made a big difference in my experience. One thing I would suggest to management is to please be more transparent with billing. Patients should carefully check their medical bills and table counts, as corrections or exchanges are not allowed. Overall, a good hospital with quality treatment and compassionate staff, but billing practices could be improved.
garima gupta2025-08-18Please avoid this hospital at all costs. Extremely slow staff. Negligence all around. Average doctors who continuously over medicate. Came for paediatric visit.
