Salem Manipal Hospitals

The traffic on the Salem-Bangalore stretch is always something else. Being near the Dalmia Board, we see a lot of people just passing through or coming in from the city. The hospital here at Salem Manipal is pretty big, and there is always something going on. Sometimes it feels like the day never ends with all the shifts switching over. The hallways are long and there’s that specific smell of cleaning supplies that stays in your nose. We have a lot of rooms and the doctors are always moving fast from one floor to another. It isn't always quiet, especially with the road noise from the highway outside, but that’s just how it is around here. People know us by the big sign when they drive toward Bangalore. It gets really bright in the afternoons when the sun hits the front glass. We try to keep things organized, but on busy Mondays, the waiting area gets crowded and people have to wait their turn. Most of the staff live nearby in Salem so we know the area well. It’s just a regular place doing the work every day. We’ve been at this spot for a while now and everyone knows where the Dalmia Board landmark is. It makes it easier for people coming from out of town to find us without getting lost in the city traffic.
