Health Clinic Center

Our clinic center is located in Dehiya, which is right near the railway station in Patna. Being so close to the station means there is always a lot of movement. You can hear the trains blowing their whistles at all hours of the day and night. It’s a busy spot for Bihar, and we get people from all over who are coming or going by train. The clinic itself is fairly basic. We have a front area for people to wait and a couple of rooms in the back for the doctor to see people. The floor is that old grey stone that stays cool even when it’s boiling outside. We spend a lot of time talking to travelers who have picked up a bug on their journey, as well as the locals who live right here in Dehiya. It gets a bit dusty because of all the traffic outside, so there’s a lot of dusting to do every morning. We have a bench outside the door too for when the inside gets too full. We don’t have a website or anything like that; people usually just hear about us from their neighbors or see the sign as they walk to the station. It’s a simple setup for a simple purpose. We try to help out whoever walks in the door. There’s usually a lot of tea drinking and chatting while people wait for their turn. We’ve seen many travelers come and go, each with their own story to tell.
