Dr. I. P. S. Kochar Clinic

Our place is tucked away in Sector 40 at D-121, which is pretty easy to find if you know where the Sai Baba Mandir is. People usually tell us they used the temple as a landmark when they were driving over. The area is mostly residential, so it’s usually quiet except for the sounds of cars parking or kids playing nearby. We’ve been operating out of this spot for a long time. The clinic itself has a small reception area where the paint is peeling slightly near the corner of the ceiling. We keep a stack of magazines on the table, though they are usually a few months old. It’s just how things go here. There’s a particular smell of antiseptic that hits you as soon as you walk in, something you get used to after working here for a week. The desks are covered in files and loose papers because we still do a lot of things by hand. Sometimes the computer takes a few minutes to start up in the morning, so we just have our tea while we wait. The staff knows most of the people who come through the door by their first names. We don’t really do anything fancy or complicated. It’s just a regular clinic where we try to keep things moving so nobody has to sit in those hard chairs for too long. Sector 40 is a good spot for us, right near the Mandir. It's just a simple building where we do our daily work.
