Dr Rajesh Maheshwari is a Neonatologist and Paediatrician based in Westmead, NSW. You can find his practice at 24-28 Mons Road, Westmead NSW 2145. He works with babies and children, including newborns who need extra care in the early weeks.
As a neonatologist, Dr Maheshwari looks after the tiniest patients and supports families at a very busy, stressful time. For many parents, the first days and weeks of a baby’s life can bring questions, worries, and plenty of “what’s normal?” moments. He helps families understand what’s happening and what to watch for as a baby grows.
Dr Maheshwari also works as a paediatrician, so his day-to-day care covers childhood health in general. That includes well-baby check-ups, ongoing growth and development checks, and vaccinations for infants and children. He treats common childhood illnesses, like everyday infections and other issues that come up as children move through different stages of life.
Developmental screening is another part of his care. These check-ups for babies and toddlers can be reassuring, and sometimes they help pick up on early support needs. At times, families are unsure whether a delay is minor or something that needs a closer look. Dr Maheshwari keeps the conversation calm and practical, and explains next steps in plain language.
Over time, he has built a steady approach to child health, balancing medical advice with real-life guidance that fits into family life. In many cases, that means focusing on comfort, clear plans, and making sure you know when to seek help. He also takes time to answer questions, even the ones that feel a bit awkward to ask.
Dr Maheshwari’s training covers both paediatrics and newborn care. He stays current with the latest health guidance for kids, including how vaccination schedules and routine baby checks work. He communicates in English and Hindi, which can help families feel more at ease during appointments.
If you are looking for a clinician who can care for babies from early life and also support kids as they grow, Dr Maheshwari is based right here in Westmead and ready to help with everyday paediatric concerns and newborn questions.
