Dr. Amit Parasher
MBBS, DNB, MD
Senior Consultant, Pediatrics
A respected name in pediatric and newborn care across Shahdara and East Delhi, Dr. Amit Parashar brings together years of clinical experience, scientific precision, and deep compassion for children. His practice is built on a strong foundation of preventive pediatrics, nutritional rehabilitation, and chronic infection management, making him a go-to doctor for parents seeking complete, long-term solutions rather than quick fixes. What sets Dr. Parashar apart is his ability to tailor treatment to each child’s unique physiology — whether it’s adjusting therapies for undernourished children, carefully managing chronic asthma, or crafting safe immunization schedules for those with prior vaccine sensitivities. His calm, structured, and evidence-based consultations give parents confidence that their child’s care is in expert hands. At East Delhi Medical Centre, he is especially known for his focus on nutrition-driven growth recovery and his precise approach to complex pediatric conditions, helping children thrive through every stage of development.
Areas of Expertise & Focus
Dr. Parashar is particularly strong in nutritional pediatrics, newborn care, and chronic infection management, backed by formal fellowship training in pediatric nutrition.
A signature strength of his is precision in therapeutic dosing in borderline cases — where weight, organ function, or metabolic issues complicate standard drug regimens. Parents often remark that he “gives the most precise dose” even in tricky cases. Another specialty is immuno-nutritional rehabilitation — helping children recover from failure to thrive or undernutrition, especially when conventional approaches have failed.
Dr. Parashar also has an edge in vaccine-resistant or vaccine-allergy risk assessment — advising families cautious about immunization timing or side effects, while still ensuring protection.
Conditions Treated
Dr. Parashar covers a broad pediatric spectrum. Below is a representative list:
Neonatal and infant care (jaundice, feeding difficulties)
Well-child checkups and immunizations
Acute & recurrent infections (respiratory, GI, UTIs)
Malnutrition, growth faltering, micro-nutrient deficiency
Food allergies and nutritional intolerance
Chronic asthma, recurrent wheezing
Thyroid and endocrine disorders in children
Developmental screening and delayed milestones
Vaccination counseling in special-risk children
Adolescent concerns: obesity, acne, menstrual irregularities
When a parent visits Dr. Parashar, the consultation begins with a thorough nutritional–metabolic audit — considering diet, digestion, immunological status — before jumping to generic prescriptions.
What makes Dr Amit Parasher So Special
Therapeutic precision expert: Cases often fail treatment when standard doses don’t suit unique metabolic needs. Dr. Parashar’s strength lies in tailoring therapies (antibiotics, supplements, hormones) in “borderline physiology” situations.
Nutritional turnaround strategist: He has successfully guided many children from under-nutrition or stunting into healthy growth trajectories using personalized diets, supplementation, and follow-up plans that are sustainable for local families.
Vaccine-sensitivity consultant: Particularly for children with prior adverse reactions or immuno-sensitivity, Dr. Parashar crafts safe immunization plans — balancing risk and protection.
Child Fever Treatment and When to See a Pediatrician
Fever is one of the most common reasons parents bring their child to a hospital. In most cases, fever is the body’s response to an infection and settles with proper care. However, high fever, persistent fever lasting more than three days, seizures, excessive sleepiness, refusal to eat, or difficulty breathing require medical attention. A pediatrician evaluates the cause, whether viral, bacterial, or related to seasonal infections, and guides parents on safe medication dosing and warning signs to watch for at home.
Dengue, Viral Fever and Seasonal Infections in Children
In Delhi, seasonal infections such as dengue, viral fever, and flu are common, especially during monsoon and winter months. Children may present with high fever, body pain, vomiting, rash, or weakness. Early diagnosis is important to monitor platelet levels in suspected dengue and prevent complications. Proper hydration, timely testing, and medical supervision reduce the risk of severe illness. Parents should avoid self-medication and consult a pediatrician if symptoms worsen or if the child appears unusually lethargic.
Cough, Cold and Chest Infection in Kids
Frequent cough and cold episodes are common in growing children as their immunity develops. While most upper respiratory infections are mild, persistent cough, fast breathing, wheezing, chest retractions, or high fever may indicate a lower respiratory infection such as bronchitis or pneumonia. A pediatric assessment helps determine whether supportive care is enough or if antibiotics, inhalation therapy, or further investigation is needed. Monitoring breathing pattern is often more important than just measuring temperature.
Diarrhea and Vomiting in Children
Loose motions and vomiting can quickly lead to dehydration in infants and young children. Signs such as dry lips, reduced urination, excessive sleepiness, or sunken eyes should never be ignored. The mainstay of treatment is maintaining hydration with oral rehydration solutions and appropriate feeding. In some cases, stool tests or medications may be required. Early medical advice helps prevent complications and ensures the child recovers safely without unnecessary hospital admission.
Childhood Vaccination and Immunization Schedule
Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect children from serious infections such as measles, polio, hepatitis, and pneumonia. Following the recommended immunization schedule ensures timely protection during vulnerable years. Pediatric consultation helps parents understand which vaccines are due, possible mild side effects, and the importance of booster doses. Maintaining an updated vaccination record is essential for overall preventive healthcare.
