Dr. Nath is now performing pediatric surgeries at Memorial Hermann Children's Hospital. Located on Fannin Street in the Texas Medical Center , it is in the same area that parents are already familiar with.

"Over 37,000 children receive treatment at the children's hospital, which is located within the Memorial Hermann Hospital complex, your child is ensured access to advanced medical equipment and expert care by a full-service, university-affiliated hospital."

The children's hospital's patient rooms are bright and cheery. Each room contains a private bathroom with tub and shower and a resting area for parents. On the 10th floor there is the Sunroom Playground and on other floors there are well-stocked playrooms filled with videos, games, books and arts & crafts. Parent Lounges are found on the floors with kitchen and laundromat facilities. Internet service is available in the Volunteer Office.

Anesthesia and nursing staff have been educated on the special needs of brachial plexus injury patients. Occupational therapists and orthotists have also been trained on the specific splinting needs. Pain Services, Child Life and Patient Advocacy are services that are available upon your request.

On The Day Of Surgery:

Parking is available across the street in the Hermann Professional Building Garage (see street map) and your ticket will be validated.

When you get to the Children's Hospital area, take either the escalator or elevator up to the 2nd floor.  Follow the signs around the corner to the Children's Surgical Waiting Area.  This is where you check in.  They will give you a pager so that you are free to move about while your child is in surgery.

Once you get to your room, you will receive a "code".  Family members and/or close friends will need this code to get updates on your child from the nursing staff (if they cannot reach you directly).

If you have any questions or problems while you are in the hospital, call Dr. Nath's office (866) 675-2200.  We hope that you and your child have a pleasant experience.
