Shree Jyothi Clinic

Down in Puthukkad, Thrissur, you will find Shree Jyothi Clinic. It’s a bit different from the clinics you see in the middle of a big city. Things move a little slower here. Our building is simple, and we have a small porch area where people sometimes stand if the waiting room is full. Inside, it’s mostly just white walls and a few benches. We don't have a television or anything like that, so people usually just talk to each other while they wait. The clinic is close to the main part of town, but it still feels like a neighborhood spot. We get a lot of rain in this part of Kerala, so there’s usually an umbrella stand by the door that stays pretty full. I spend my mornings getting the files ready and making sure the rooms are tidy. The doctors here are local people, so they know the families who live around the clinic. We don’t have a big corporate team, just a few of us who handle everything from the cleaning to the paperwork. It’s a humble place, and we like it that way. You can hear the birds in the trees outside when the traffic dies down for a bit. We just try to provide a quiet, steady place for people to come when they need a check-up. It is just a part of the daily life here in Puthukkad.
