Calm and quiet place with well-experienced doctors and staff.
A well-managed hospital or health center, possibly affiliated with a medical college. We visit here for any family health concerns. The consultation fee is just 5 rupees, and they have 5-6 doctors for general medicine.
Worst trainee doctor I have ever seen. No thermometer and no care for the patients. They are not suitable for government hospitals.
The staff is helpful, but they are a bit slow in attending to customers. The doctor I met today (room number 3 on Oct 17, 2022, around 10-11 AM) was very rude. She seemed impatient and in a hurry to finish the consultation.
Decent place with enough parking facilities.
