About the hospital

Children's Memorial Health Institute Warsaw was founded in 1977 as one of the largest pediatric hospitals in Poland. The research center and a wide range of pediatric medical and surgical treatments allowed doctors to implement innovative treatment methods and move Polish medicine forward.

The clinic serves 242,000 children at the inpatient and outpatient levels. The modern hospital building has 550 beds, providing quick access to quality treatment without long queues. The quality of service and patient safety meet the gold standards of PN-EN ISO 9001: 2015. Thanks to the success, the Institute received a high rating from the Council of Member States of the ERN (ITHACA, MetabERN, PaedCan- ERN, RARE-LIVER, and RITA) and became a member of the European reference networks. The international recognition of the associations has contributed to the further evolution of capacities and opportunities in cooperation between the largest leading centers for children's diseases. In addition to proper cure, Children's Memorial Health Institute in Warsaw received the highest scientific category, "A", in the discipline "Medical Sciences" and is the owner of numerous awards for achievements in science and treatment: Inspirations Award 2020 in the field of "innovative treatment methods and electronic services", certificate from the Polish Society for the Study of Pain and Anesthesia and the Horizon Impact Award 2019 for achievements in the treatment of the rare lysosomal metabolic disease alpha-mannosidosis.

The clinic is unique in its desire to use the latest technologies and treatment methods. Back in 1984, doctors at the Warsaw Children's Memorial Health Institute performed the first pediatric kidney transplant in Poland and later the first combined simultaneous liver, small intestine, duodenum, and pancreas transplants. In addition, in 2012, the robust cardiac surgery department was the pioneer in performing a left ventricular support operation, which made it possible to avoid heart transplantation and severe complications. Furthermore, the latest developments in the field of pediatric ophthalmology date back to 2015. Doctors of the medical center used intra-arterial chemotherapy for eye cancer - retinoblastoma with a high success rate. Owing to the high technology and the incredible experience, remedy methods unique to Poland are still observed. Thanks to the FLUOBEAM LX, endocrine surgeons performed a unique operation to remove the thyroid gland while preserving the parathyroid glands. This approach reduces the postoperative child's risks of disturbance of calcium metabolism, which is vitally important. Cardioneuroablation and the Ross–Konno operation have become a real breakthrough in the cardiac treatment of children and require high professionalism. Over time, patients have been carefully examined, and the significant effect of the treatment has been revealed.

Children's Memorial Health Institute in Warsaan important place in Poland's pediatric field of medicine, promoting modern treatment methods. Neurology and neurosurgery, ophthalmology and ENT, gastroenterology and endocrinology, rare genetic congenital and acquired defects, general and intensive care and emergency medical care are available to young patients at a high level.
