Is there a NICU hospital near Botad?

Naari Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Amreli operates a neonatal intensive care unit inside the same building as its delivery suites, staffed by a consultant pediatrician.

An honest word about distance

When 90 km is and isn't the right choice

Botad is not in Amreli district, and we are not going to pretend a 90 km drive suits every situation. For an emergency, the nearest capable hospital is the right hospital — that is true everywhere, and it is true here.

Where the journey does make sense is planned care. A high-risk pregnancy that needs a delivery plan built around neonatal intensive care. A fertility workup that has stalled and needs a specialist who can also operate. Gynecological surgery where keyhole laparoscopy is available instead of open surgery. These are decisions made weeks ahead, and for those, distance is a scheduling problem rather than a clinical one.

If you are weighing it up, call 93273 61084 and describe the situation. Some of those calls end with us telling you to stay closer to home. We would rather say that than have you drive for something you can get in Botad.

Worth the journey for

High-risk pregnancy — planned delivery with NICU on site.
Fertility & IVF — where a surgical opinion is also needed.
Keyhole surgery — laparoscopy and hysteroscopy.
Second opinions — when a plan elsewhere does not sit right.

Newborn care

What a NICU changes

The unit sits steps from the delivery room, so a newborn who needs support is treated where they are born.

Preterm babies

Babies born early need warmth, monitoring and feeding support that a normal nursery cannot provide.

Low birth weight

Small babies are watched closely for temperature, blood sugar and weight gain in the first days.

Breathing difficulty

Respiratory support available immediately rather than after a transfer.

Feeding problems

Support for babies who cannot yet feed on their own, with guidance for the mother alongside.

Jaundice & infection

Common newborn conditions treated on site under a consultant pediatrician.

No transfer

The single biggest advantage — a baby in difficulty stays put and the team comes to them.

Botad district — common questions

Questions worth asking first

Is there a NICU hospital near Botad?

Naari Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Amreli operates a neonatal intensive care unit inside the same building as its delivery suites, with a consultant pediatrician on staff. Botad is in a neighbouring district, roughly 90 km south, and families from Botad district do travel to Naari for maternity and newborn care.

What does a NICU actually do?

A neonatal intensive care unit cares for newborns who need more support than a normal nursery provides — babies born preterm, born small, struggling to breathe or feed, or unwell in the first days. It combines monitoring, temperature control, feeding support and a pediatrician who can act immediately.

Should I plan delivery at a hospital with a NICU?

If your pregnancy carries known risk — twins, preterm risk, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, or a previously complicated delivery — delivering where neonatal intensive care already exists means a newborn in difficulty is treated in the room next door instead of being transferred. Discuss it with your obstetrician well before the due date.

How far is Naari Hospital from Botad?
