Internal Medicine And Clinical Cardiology

We are based inside the Neotia Getwell Healthcare Centre, which is part of the Uttorayon township in Siliguri. It’s a large building, quite different from the small shops you see in the main town area. Being near City Centre means there are always a lot of cars and people moving around outside. I usually take the path through the main entrance and head to where our section is. It’s a busy place with a lot of corridors and the smell of cleaning fluids that you always find in these centers. The patients come from all over, some from Siliguri and others from further away in North Bengal or even Sikkim. I spend most of my hours in a small room looking at charts and talking to people about their hearts and general health. The views of the hills are sometimes visible on clear days, which is nice. We have a lot of different people working here, from nurses to the folks who clean the floors. It’s a bit more organized than a street-side clinic, but it still feels like a local spot because everyone knows the Neotia name. Siliguri is a gateway town, so we see all sorts of travelers too. It’s a lot of responsibility, but we just take it one person at a time. The routine is the same every day, checking pulses and listening to stories.
