Hospital
A Centre of Surgical Excellence
Operating primarily from Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital, Surgeons for Little Lives focuses on improving healthcare infrastructure and patient support services. Through partnerships with entities like the Gauteng Department of Health and GlaxoSmithKline, Surgeons for Little Lives continues to make significant strides in paediatric healthcare.

Wells Paediatric Burns Unit
We are committed to providing specialized care through our dedicated Paediatric Burns Unit (PBU), which currently houses 8 intensive care beds and 24 general ward beds.
Paediatric Colorectal Clinic
At Johannesburg Paediatric Colorectal Clinic (JPCC), we provide specialized, multidisciplinary care for children with a wide range of colorectal and pelvic conditions.
Outside Playground
Recovering from surgery can be challenging for young patients, and access to outdoor play is essential for their well-being.
Expressive Arts Programme
For traumatised, injured, or sick children, expressing their emotions through art, movement, and music helps ease their fears, uplift their spirits, and even strengthen their immune systems—supporting a faster recovery.
