Gandhi Medical College came into being on 14th September 1954 AD. This was the second medical college in the erstwhile state of Hyderabad. The Osmania medical college was the first medical college in the Hyderabad state having started as a medical school in 1846 AD and made a college in 1926 AD. Gandhi Medical College is located in Padmarao Nagar, Secunderabad in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
There were two medical colleges in Andhra region of erstwhile Madras State at that time. First was Andhra medical college at Vishakapatnam which started in 1923 AD and Guntur medical college was the second in that region having opened in 1946 AD. There were three other medical colleges in Madras State, which accepted students from Andhra region. They were Madras medical college which is now known as Chennai medical college and Research Institute and it started in 1835 AD to be followed closely by Stanley medical college in 1838 AD. 1835 AD was the beginning of allopathic medical education in the country and Calcutta medical college was started first in the same year few months earlier to that of Madras medical college. Christian medical college at Vellore was opened in the year 1942 AD. Thus Gandhi Medical College was the second in Hyderabad State, fourth in Andhra Pradesh and 29th in the country. Gandhi is celebrating its golden jubilee this year and now there are 162 recognized medical colleges in India with an annual intake of 18385 seats. Another 36 colleges were permitted to be opened in the country with annual admissions totaling 3750 seats in these new colleges.
Thus annual undergraduate medical admissions are over 22000 in India. Intake of students to Gandhi medical college per year is 150 for MBBS Degree Course. Postgraduate seats are 88 per year, which includes clinical, non-clinical and super specialty subjects. These courses lead to 37 degrees in various branches of medicine. It may be worth recalling that postgraduate courses in medicine were started in Osmania medical college only in 1957AD and students were posted under the Gandhi teachers from 1958 AD till 1976 AD. Separate selection and posting of postgraduate students into Gandhi began in the year 1976 AD.
Gandhi medical college building in Basheer Bagh has a chequered past. It was built in 1890 by Paighas for supervision and maintenance of Basheer bagh palace and later housed the city improvement board and this can be seen in the small plaque located to the left of the entrance to the office building. It had Mughal and Rajasthani architectural features. City improvement board looked after the maintenance of palaces of Nizam. After these buildings were transferred to the college new lecture hall blocks were built at the new premises at Basheer Bagh. These were inaugurated by chief minister Dr.Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy on 31st August, 1958. Dr. K.N.Rao, director of medical services entertained the idea of integrating both Osmania and Gandhi medical colleges at the new complex which was coming up at Koti then. It was Sanjeeva Reddy who prevailed upon and said that each college would be separate, as they would be too unwieldy at one place.
Gandhi medical college offers Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, Doctor of Medicine, Master of Surgery, Master of Chirurgical, and Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Paramedical and Medical.
Departments of the Gandhi medical college include anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, forensic medicine, microbiology, pathology, pharmacology and community medicine.
Gandhi medical college magazines are a storehouse of memories but unfortunately none of these copies are available in the college library and we are trying to procure the old copies and preserve them in the alumni office. Silver Jubilee edition of the College Magazine contained memoirs of many people were associated with the college in the beginning. The article in the house calls issued in 2003 also contains reminiscences of old students and teachers.
