Hospital Diaries

Twelve stories from 15 years in hospital administration. Anonymised, educational, honest.

In 15 years inside Surat hospitals — Basil Onco Care, Bharat Cancer Hospital and 2 others — the same lesson repeated weekly: families were not broken by disease. They were broken by money.

Hospital Diaries is Avatara's way of putting those lessons on record — anonymised, educational, no advice. If one episode saves one family, it was worth telling.
