Gountia Medical Complex

Gountia Medical Complex is located in Kuchinda, right near the Jhulenpool. It’s easy to find if you know where the bridge is. The building is a bit older, with some cracks in the plaster here and there. We have a few rooms where the doctors sit. The waiting area has a TV but it usually just plays the news or some local channel. People from the surrounding villages come here quite often. They bring their kids or their parents. We have a pharmacy section where we keep the shelves stocked with basic stuff. It can get dusty because of the road nearby, so we are always wiping things down. The staff knows most of the regulars by name. We don't use any fancy computer systems for everything; a lot of it is still written down in notebooks. There’s a small parking area out front but it fills up fast on market days. We start our day early, usually before the sun gets too hot. By lunchtime, it’s usually pretty quiet. We eat our tiffins in the back room. The air feels different here than in the big cities. It is more relaxed, even when we are busy. We don’t try to be anything we are not. We just provide a place for people to get checked out. It’s a simple setup that has worked for us for years. We just keep going. Sometimes the power flickers when it rains, so we keep some candles in the drawer.
