Chandi Wala Hospital

We’ve been here at Chandi Wala Hospital on Maa Anandmai Marg for a long time now. Most people around Kalka Ji know exactly where we are because we’ve been in this same spot for years. It is pretty busy out there on the main road, but inside it’s just us doing what needs to be done every day. We get patients coming in at all times. Some are local neighbors from Kalka Ji and others are just people passing through the area. The building isn't anything fancy or modern. It is just a regular hospital with the usual rooms and beds. Sometimes it gets a bit loud because of the traffic on Maa Anandmai Marg, but you eventually get used to the noise. The staff mostly lives nearby, so we just walk or take a rickshaw to get here. We handle the paperwork, talk to the families, and try to keep things moving as best as we can. It’s not like a big corporate office where everything is shiny and perfect. We just show up in our uniforms and get to work. It feels like a real part of the neighborhood. People even stop by just to ask for directions sometimes. We have seen a lot of changes in this part of town over the years, but Chandi Wala Hospital is still sitting here on the corner. It involves a lot of long shifts and tired faces, but that’s just how it goes. Nothing fancy, just the hospital on the street.
