In short

Bangladesh Shishu Hospital & Institute is a children's hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh, serving patients since 1972. It runs 3 departments, including Paediatrics, Paediatric Surgery and Paediatric Cardiology.

Bangladesh Shishu Hospital & Institute, still widely known as Dhaka Shishu Hospital, is a government children's hospital and paediatric institute in Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka. It became a statutory body under the Bangladesh Shishu Hospital & Institute Act of 2021, which merged Dhaka Shishu Hospital with the Bangladesh Institute of Child Health. The campus is in the Agargaon and Shyamoli side of Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, near other national specialist institutes.

The hospital treats children and also trains paediatric doctors and nurses. Recent items on its official website include:

  • a new surgery outpatient department opened in April 2026
  • a dedicated measles ward
  • bubble CPAP support for children with breathing problems, with technical help from icddr,b
  • a Diploma in Paediatric Nursing course

The official website does not show a dedicated hospital hotline, so call national information line 333 for directions or check the website before visiting.

A practical tip: outpatient queues form early in the morning, so arrive well before opening time, bring the child's previous prescriptions, test reports and vaccination card, and expect heavy traffic on Mirpur Road near Shyamoli.
