Rajan Eye & Heart Care Centre

This clinic is located on Chd. Road in Tohana, right inside the Medical Enclave area. Rajan Eye & Heart Care Centre is a long name, so most of us just call it the center. We handle two very different things here, which are eyes and hearts. It makes for an interesting mix of people waiting in the hallway. Some are here because they can’t see the signs on the road, and others are worried about how their chest feels. We have various machines for both types of problems. The building is in a spot where a lot of people walk by every day. In the winter, the lobby gets quite cold, so we usually have a small electric heater tucked in the corner. Most of the staff grew up around here. We know the families in Tohana pretty well. It has a small-town feeling even though the work can be quite serious. We try not to use big medical words when we talk to patients. It is much better to just explain things in a way that makes sense. The floors get very scuffed up from all the boots coming in from the street. We have to mop them every single evening. There is a lot of paperwork to deal with, which is the part of the job nobody likes. We keep our files in these big metal cabinets that sometimes get stuck. It is just a normal day-to-day operation for us.
