When a baby arrives, the first hours and days call for a careful review to confirm that everything is going well. Newborn care is that comprehensive assessment of the baby from birth: physical examination, weight, vital signs, and early detection of problems.
When is it performed? It begins in the delivery room and continues in the first visits, including the newborn screening test and guidance on feeding and care.
What does it include? Review of reflexes, skin, breathing, and feeding, plus the first vaccines and advice for parents.
Which specialist provides it? It is provided by the pediatrician and the neonatologist, and in many settings, the general practitioner. If you're expecting a baby or one has already been born, it's best to schedule an appointment soon with a trusted professional. The price depends on the location and who provides the care.

Before you book
- Every licensed doctor in Mexico holds a cédula profesional, a national licence number. It appears on our doctor profiles where we have it, and you can verify it yourself against the federal registry.
- Ask exactly what a quoted price covers. Consultation, imaging, anaesthesia, materials and follow-up visits are often quoted separately.
- Ask who handles follow-up once you are home, and what happens if something needs correcting. For treatment that spans several visits, agree the schedule before you travel.
El Doctor is a directory. We do not provide medical care, take bookings, or receive payment from the providers listed.
