Child Growth Monitoring

Growth monitoring by Dr. Chirag Saluja provides parents with a detailed understanding of their child’s physical development, ensuring early detection of concerns and timely intervention. He evaluates height, weight, head circumference, and BMI using standardised growth charts, comparing each child’s growth pattern with expected milestones. This assessment helps identify possible nutritional deficiencies, hormonal issues, or health conditions that may affect growth. Dr. Saluja explains every parameter in simple terms, helping parents recognise what is normal and what requires attention. For children who are underweight, overweight, or showing slowed growth, he creates personalised nutrition and lifestyle plans to support healthy progress. He addresses common issues such as picky eating, poor appetite, inadequate weight gain, and excessive weight gain with practical and realistic solutions. He also monitors sleep habits, physical activity, and daily routines, as these factors deeply influence overall growth. Infants undergo close monitoring of feeding patterns, digestion, and early developmental responses. Older children and teenagers receive guidance that supports healthy physical transitions during puberty. Each visit is recorded with care to track changes over time, making follow-ups structured and meaningful. Dr. Saluja’s goal is to ensure that every child grows confidently and consistently, achieving their maximum potential through proper nutrition, balanced routines, and timely medical support.
