A Pediatric Neurologist (child neurologist, often called a "shishu neuro specialist" in Bangladesh) diagnoses and treats disorders of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles in children from newborns up to about 18 years. Bangladeshi families most often see one for recurrent seizures and epilepsy, febrile convulsions, delayed milestones, cerebral palsy, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, recurring headaches or migraine, muscle weakness, and conditions linked to birth asphyxia or premature birth. Some are sub-specialists in paediatric development and behaviour. In a typical consultation the doctor takes a detailed birth and developmental history, examines the child's tone, reflexes, movement and growth, and often reviews reports such as EEG, brain MRI/CT, or blood tests. They may then start medication, plan physiotherapy or occupational/speech therapy, and arrange follow-up. You should see a Pediatric Neurologist if your child has fits or staring spells, is not sitting, walking or talking on time, has a large or small head, frequent severe headaches, sudden loss of skills, or weakness on one side of the body.
See a Pediatric Neurologist if your child has seizures or fits, repeated staring spells, delayed milestones (not sitting, walking or talking on time), severe or frequent headaches, sudden loss of skills, or weakness on one side of the body. Early assessment of conditions like epilepsy, cerebral palsy or autism gives the best long-term outcome.
In Chittagong, a Pediatric Neurologist's consultation fee is usually between BDT 600 and 1,500. Senior consultants and professors at large private hospitals may charge BDT 1,500 to 3,000, while government medical college and district hospital out-patient departments cost much less or are free. A follow-up visit (usually within 2-4 weeks) is often charged at a reduced rate. Tests such as EEG or brain MRI are billed separately by the diagnostic centre.
You can book by calling the chamber or hospital, through the hospital's appointment line, or via an online booking platform; popular doctors often have a serial system, so book a day or two ahead. Carry your child's birth and vaccination records, any previous prescriptions, and all old reports (EEG, MRI/CT, blood tests). The doctor will ask detailed questions about pregnancy, birth and milestones, examine your child, and may order tests before starting treatment. Try to bring a video on your phone if your child has had a seizure or unusual movement.
There is no single "best" doctor for every child—the right Pediatric Neurologist in Chittagong depends on your child's specific condition, the doctor's experience with it, and how easily you can reach their chamber for regular follow-up. A good approach is to compare qualifications (such as MD in Paediatric Neurology or fellowship training), years of experience, the hospital they are attached to, and patient reviews. You can use this page to see verified Pediatric Neurologists in Chittagong, their chambers and fees, and choose one that fits your child's needs.
Yes. Many Pediatric Neurologists in Chittagong offer video or phone consultations, which work well for reviewing reports, adjusting epilepsy medicine doses, and routine follow-up. Online fees are often similar to or slightly lower than an in-person visit. However, a first visit—or any case with new seizures, sudden weakness, head injury or a very unwell child—should be seen in person so the doctor can properly examine your child. Keep all reports ready on screen or send them in advance for an online consultation.
