Transporation: Visiting the doctor in Mumbai
« on: July 28, 2021, 02:10:57 PM »

What is a good way to visit the doctor in Mumbai from your hotel with 2 broken legs? Calling an Uber would be unreliable.

Any suggestions? Is it possible to use an ambulance service?

I am considering Dr Mangal Parihar.

Maybe you could ask the hotel concierge to connect you with a driver to take you to the appointment and back. The concierge could make sure the driver knows where he/she is going.

If you stay in a hotel the front desk will just flag down an auto rickshaw if you're close. For longer distances they'll arrange a cab.

Just one of many reasons staying at a hotel while lengthening is better than doing an airbnb.

Good idea. I could ask them to make the driver wait for me until I am done with my appointment.

How would you go back to the hotel? And an auto rickshaw seems very hard to get into and get out of and it won't even hold a wheelchair. So the guy would stop in front of the hospital gate and what would one do after that? You were on externals which were weight bearing so you could minimally walk. But for a Precice patient, they would need a wheelchair right after getting out of the auto rickshaw.

Did the hospital offer an ambulance service?
