In 1896, India experienced a serious famine, while the people in Mumbai suffered from many deadly diseases. Navroji Hormusji Patuck, manager of Petit Mills, proposed to the Petit family of setting up a hospital for the Parsee community. He offered Rs 500 and initiated the funding. Navroji Nusserwanji Wadia and Dr. Kekhushroo N Bahadurji donated Rs 10,000 on behalf of Parsee Panchayat. They set up a temporary hospital in Parel.Bomanji gave his property in Cumballa Hill Family Hotel and securities of INR50,000. The committee accepted his donation and agreed to name the hospital after him. In 1907, the foundation for the hospital was laid by the Governor of Bombay Sir George Clark. To run the hospital, it receives donations from the Zoroastrian community.

Our very old Parsi General Hospital built and run by the Parsi Community for the Benifit of Parsis. It is well equipped with latest gadgets and machinery. New hospital beds, good staff. But the best part is the long corridors, ancient old architectures and beautiful gardens it is surrounded in. The best part it also has a free ward for poor Parsi people who cannot afford treatments.

It's a beautiful n historical hospital. This is meant only for Zoarastrians n iranian Zorastrians.
One n only hospital in Mumbai to have vast open area with garden in the centre n ample car park.
The wide open corridors dont give you that stuffy hospital feel.
They cater to the poorest too.
The staff is good n helpful.
Doctors are equally qualified n very highly rated.
