Lakhani Children Hospital

Lakhani Children Hospital is tucked away at 1 Hira Baug Lane, part of Sohan Nagar on Varachha Road. It is right across from Dr Sarthi House, which is a big landmark for anyone trying to find us. Being on Varachha Road means there is a lot of noise from the main street, but our little lane is slightly quieter. Working in a place for kids means there is a lot of bright paint on the walls, though some of it is peeling at the edges now. We have stickers of cartoons on the glass doors to make things feel a bit less scary for the little ones. The waiting room usually has a few toys scattered around and there is almost always the sound of a baby crying somewhere in the back. It is a busy hospital and we are often running around trying to find misplaced charts or getting the next patient in. The air in the office feels a bit heavy in the summer, but we have a few old units that keep things bearable. We know the other shopkeepers in Hira Baug Lane and sometimes we stand outside for a few minutes just to watch the traffic go by on the main road. It is a tight-knit spot and we have been here long enough that we see children grow up and eventually bring their own younger siblings in. It is just our daily routine in this corner of Varachha.
