Patient Experiences

Stories of healing and hope from our patients

"I came to Makunda Hospital with advanced leprosy and severe ulcers. After 12 months of treatment and care, I'm not just healed physically but also regained my confidence. The staff treated me with dignity when others had rejected me."

Arjun Kumar
Patient from Baksa District
"My daughter was born here prematurely. The pediatric team provided exceptional care in the neonatal unit. For 28 days they monitored her round the clock. Today she is a healthy 3-year-old. We are forever grateful to Makunda Hospital."
