Prince Aly Khan Hospital

Down here at Aga Hall on Nesbet Road, Prince Aly Khan Hospital is a familiar sight for anyone living around Mazgaon or Byculla. It’s an old place with a lot of history behind it. The building itself has seen a lot of years. When you walk inside, you can tell it’s been there for a long time. It isn’t some shiny new glass tower, but it does what it needs to do. Most of us who work here live nearby or have been commuting to this spot for decades. The neighborhood is busy, so there’s always noise from the street coming in through the windows. We handle a lot of patients every single day. The elevators are always moving and the staff in the canteen are usually rushing around too. It gets crowded in the mornings when the clinics open up. We don’t have any special speeches about what we do. We just wake up, come to Nesbet Road, and start the shift. Some of the doctors have been here since they were young. Patients often come back because they know the way around the halls. It’s a community sort of feel, even though it’s a big hospital. We just try to keep the machines running and the beds occupied by people who need them. It is just honest work in a busy part of the city. We have been part of the Aga Hall area for a very long time now and we just keep going.
