A new milestone for NHCDC
Hello again,
We've been quiet for a while, because something has been cooking and we wanted to take off with a big bang. This past weekend, NHCDC reached a new and exciting milestone in its dedicated journey to enlighten and label the lives of differently abled children.
The 5th branch of New Horizons Child Development Centre and the New Horizons Audiology and Hearing Aids Centre for Adults & Children was inaugurated on Sunday by Dr. Najma Heptulla, Hon’ble Cabinet Minister, Minority Affairs, Government of India and other revered guests and well-wishers.

Our new centre is sophisticated and sleek, an ultra-modern design in a spacious 1,700 plus square feet space. Colourful and filled with positive energy, this new space is the ultimate culmination of the holistic child-centric multi-disciplinary integrated care that NHDCD is recognised.
In addition to the six existing departments of NHCDC (Clinical Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Remedial Education, Speech Therapy, Physical Therapy and Nutrition), the highlight of the new centre is the state-of-the-art New Horizons Audiology Centre for Adults and Children. Conceived by UK-based Pediatric Audiovestibular Consultant Dr Waheeda Pagarkar, we now proudly offer the best facilities for evaluation and management of Hearing Loss and Deafness and Vestibular disorders like Dizzyness and Vertigo.
