He has served as Head of the Department of Child Health and holds MBBS, DCH, FCPS in Paediatrics, FRCP from Edinburgh, and MD in Pediatric Health. His long academic and clinical background covers the health needs of infants, children, and adolescents. Parents may consult a child health specialist for fever, cough, breathing problems, stomach issues, poor appetite, repeated infections, weakness, or concerns about growth. Some children recover quickly from common illnesses. Others need tests or follow-up when symptoms continue. Growth, nutrition, sleep, and general development can also be discussed during a pediatric consultation.

At Sylmount General Hospital in Sylhet, Professor M. Azir Uddin Ahmed provides consultation for different child health concerns. His postgraduate training in paediatrics and child health gives him a broad clinical background. Children do not always explain what they are feeling. A young child may cry or simply become quiet, while parents have to describe what changed at home. Details such as fever duration, eating habits, sleep, bowel movements, previous medicines, and old reports can help during an assessment. Depending on the child's condition, treatment may involve medicine, observation, testing, or a follow-up visit. Parents in Sylhet can contact 01978-870484 or 01740-958368 for appointment information. Some visits are for a routine problem. Others may involve something that has been worrying the family for a while. A proper examination comes first. Then the rest can be worked out.
