Dr Khushbu Veterinary Clinic

This clinic is tucked away in Shop No 4 of Jamasji Apartment on Sleater Road. We’re right behind Bhatia Hospital, so that’s a good way to find us if you’re lost in the Grant Road area. It’s a small space, which can get interesting when you have two dogs and a grumpy cat all waiting at the same time in the front. The smell of disinfectant is usually pretty strong, but that’s just how it is in a vet's office. We’ve got a sturdy table for the animals to stand on and some shelves full of various bottles and supplies we use every day. Grant Road is a crowded area, so there’s always noise coming in from the street and the surrounding apartments. We know most of the pets in this neighborhood by name now. It’s a bit of a squeeze when a big dog comes in, but we make it work. The floor is easy to wipe down, which is necessary more often than you’d think with all the animals coming through. We don't have a big marketing budget or a fancy sign; the one we have out front is a bit faded from the sun. Dr. Khushbu is usually busy with someone’s pet in the back room. It’s an honest, small-scale clinic where we just care for the local animals. People from the apartments above often drop in just to ask a quick question about their cat. It’s just a part of the Grant Road community life.
