Dr. Palin Khundongbam: A Positive and Compassionate Leader Working for a Better Tomorrow

Dr. Palin Khundongbam, an outstanding surgeon and a successful entrepreneur set to change the medical conditions for the people of Myanmar, believes, “Happiness is the only way to happiness. Unhappiness cannot solve our problems except draining our energy and enthusiasm. Unhappiness can be traced to the thinking of painful past experiences or the fear of the future. If we are conscious of our consciousness, we can remove these thoughts and be in the state of no thought but stillness or awareness at present. This is the time when we can innovate and succeed.” This positive spirit was very much fascinated by the grand stories of a few doctors and set out to pursue the profession. He bagged the degree of MBBS from RIMS, Manipur, and MS (General Surgery) and MCh (Plastic Surgery) from PGI Chandigarh.

Beginning of Shija

In the 1970s, Dr. Khundongbam saw that many patients from Manipur went to Dibrugarh and Alipore in Assam and CMC in Vellore for healthcare treatment. He realized people lacked trust in the local healthcare facilities. To rectify this situation, he started Shija Clinic, attached to a pharmacy at Paona Bazar, Imphal, in 1985, with minor operation facility and a side laboratory. Soon, Shija became a leader in piles treatment in eastern India by providing non-operative piles treatment facilities. The company grew and shifted to a rented, bigger, 9-bedded hospital on RIMS Road in 1988 and later expanded to 35-bedded multi-specialty hospital in three different rented buildings across the road. To overcome the structural and environmental problems, Shija visualized its own land with proper hospital architect and shifted to the current eco -friendly location, Langol, at the outskirts of Imphal.
