Masina Hospital

Masina Hospital, located in the heart of Mumbai, India, is a premier medical hospital belonging to the eponymous trust. Built in memory of Jerbal Masina by her family and descendants, this hospital is a well-known landmark in Byculla (E). It serves the community through various out-patient and in-patient services manned by a competent staff — both medical and non-medical.

Departments
Masina Hospital is well-known since many years for running a state-of-the-art Burns Center. Run by its Plastic Surgery Department, the Eric Kharas Burns Unit is one of the best in the country. Masina Hospital is also known as one of the first hospitals in the Private domain to start a sick Newborn unit or the "Premature Baby Unit" under the stewardship of Dr. Mrs. Maharukh Joshi, now retired. The present NICU is located in a different building within the complex of Masina Hospital but is ably run by the Department of Pediatrics and Neonatology, headed by Dr. Mrs. S.H. Mullan. This Premature Unit often received babies from as far away as 300–500 km from Mumbai at one time. The third, albeit recent distinction, and a feather in the cap for this institute is its well-equipped and phenomenal Department of Psychiatry.

Apart from these, Masina Hospital has almost every faculty of medicine and surgery, including Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Medicine, General Surgery, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, Dermatology, Neurology, Cardiology, Endocrinology and so on.

The most recent accomplishment has been the establishment of a full-fledged Blood Bank with a fractionation Unit that is one of the most modern units in the city.

Service before self
Run by a Parsi trust, Masina Hospital has always placed service before self. Many of the patients that seek expensive medical care are often given 90% or even 100% concession and allowed to be treated completely free of cost.
