Dr.L.H. Hiranandani Hospital

I work at Dr.L.H. Hiranandani Hospital, which is over on Hill Side Avenue in Hiranandani Gardens, Powai. It’s a big building, and it’s been a landmark in this part of Mumbai for a long time. The gardens nearby are nice, but inside it’s a whole different world. It’s always fast-paced. You have doctors, nurses, and technicians running around 24/7. My day usually starts with the sound of the shift change. It’s a large hospital, so there’s always something going on in one of the wards or the emergency room. We have a lot of different departments, but at the end of the day, it’s just a lot of people trying to take care of other people. The hallways are long and can be a bit confusing if you’re new here. We don’t really do "About Us" stories in a fancy way; we just show up and do the shifts. The air conditioning is always humming, and there’s that specific hospital smell everywhere. We see everything from new babies being born to people coming in for serious surgeries. It’s a lot of responsibility, but we don't talk about it in a grand way. It is just the work we chose to do. Powai is a busy area, and being on Hill Side Avenue means we are right in the middle of it all, serving whoever walks through those front doors every single day.
