Sri Manjunatha Hospital

Sri Manjunatha Hospital is right on Main Road, which makes it easy to find but also pretty noisy most of the day. You can hear the auto-rickshaws and buses honking right outside the front door. We've been here for a while and the building has seen better days, but it’s sturdy enough. Inside, it’s mostly just white walls and tile floors that get mopped several times a day because of all the mud people bring in from the street. There isn't much in the way of decoration, just some old posters about health and some chairs that have been sat in by thousands of people. The doctors are usually in their small rooms, and the reception desk is right as you walk in. It gets really crowded in the evenings when people finish work and stop by for their checkups. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to switch over to the generator, which makes a loud humming sound that echoes through the halls. We don't have a big cafeteria or anything, just a small space for the staff to eat their lunch. Most people who come here are from the neighborhood. They know the staff by name and we know them. It’s just a basic hospital on a busy street where things are always moving. You might have to wait a bit if it's a Monday, but that's just how it goes here. We try to keep it simple and focus on the people coming through the door.
