Functions and Services | Organisational Structure
The present department of Medical Education was originally called Department of Medical Services with its origin in composite Madras State under British India. It continued, as such, in Andhra State formed on 01. 11. 53 with 11 districts from former Madras State.
The present Directorate of Medical Education was created in the year 1987, after many changes that took place from 1967 to 1987. Full-fledged functioning of the department started from 29. 9. 1987.
Under Act 6 of 1986 – University of Health Sciences Act 1986, NTR University of Health Sciences was established at Vijayawada to provide for the establishment and incorporation of a Teaching and Affiliating University in the State of Andhra Pradesh for the purposes of ensuring efficient and systematic education, trainee and Research on the Allopathic and Indian systems of Medicine, Dentistry, and Nursing. Hence the Academic activities earlier under D. M. E. were transferred to NTR University of Health Sciences, Vijayawada, from 1986 onwards.
As the delivery of Medical Care depends very much on proper staffing, the Government after considering the recommendations of various high level Committees such as Bhore Committee, Mudaliar Committee, Working Groups of Planning Commission and Indian Medical Council, prescribed revised yardsticks of staffing pattern of the teaching hospitals, Speciality and Medical Colleges in G. O. Ps. No. 88, M & H, Dated 27. 8. 1977 as per which the cadre strength of Medical, Nursing and para-medical now exists in the teaching hospitals and Medical Colleges. The pattern of Teaching Staff in Medical Colleges and attached Teaching Hospitals in the State is modified as per Medical Council of India Regulations 1999 in the year 1999.

No official sanction for new Gandhi Hospital complex?
By V. Geetanath
The new Gandhi Hospital building at Musheerabad in Hyderabad. — Photo: K. Ramesh Babu
HYDERABAD Nov.8. When the spanking new buildings of the Gandhi Hospital and College constructed on the premises that earlier housed the Musheerabad jail are inaugurated by the Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu, any day now, they fulfil a long felt dream nurtured by medical professionals as well as the general public.
Increased bed strength, modern equipment and spacious surroundings are certainly a boon for patients and doctors, cramped as they were in the old buildings near the Secunderabad railway station. And, the sprawling 34 acres was obtained only after some debate and struggle.
However, before celebrations start there's some shocking news. The multi-storied buildings housing the general hospital and college are illegal structures! That's because they do not have an official sanction and the plans have not been approved by the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad.
Neither is there a clearance from the Chief Engineer of the MCH nor was a No Objection Certificate taken from the Directorate of Fire Services, which in effect makes the buildings "unsafe."
As per the A.P. Fire Service Act 1999, anyone proposing to construct a high rise building for any purpose other than residential, should apply for issue of NOC even before submission of building plans to the municipal authorities concerned.
Though about Rs. 65 crores was spent on the construction of the hospital, college, hostels and staff quarters by the A.P. Health and Medical Infrastructure Development Corporation, it has not bothered to obtain building permissions from the civic body before starting construction. The hostels and college have already started functioning from the new premises.
It was only on July 25, 2003, that the building plan was put before the multi-storied building committee of the MCH, which realised to its surprise that the Executive Engineer of the APHMIDC had almost completed the works without even seeking its nod.
The committee had decided to the send a "detailed factual report to the Government for issuing necessary orders" as it was unable to accord permission to it.
The building committee has also noted that there was a shortfall of open space to an extent of 0.9 to 3 metres between the two blocks consisting of cellar, ground plus six upper floors, and it requires relaxation as per Government rules. And, as per the MCH building bylaws itself, permissions were mandatory for any new Government buildings.
Exemption, if any, can be given only for "operational constructions" and hospitals do not come under its purview.
If the Government is to follow its rules in letter and spirit, there is no escape route because as per its own Order 423 issued in 1998, it clearly states that "the Government or any other authority shall have no powers hereafter to relax any site from the provisions of the building stipulations either in parts or in full.''
Moreover, the new hospital and college buildings do not have proper access for the disabled and old people. The access audit report prepared by the Society for Equal Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities (Se'DoP) about the lack of appropriate ramps, handrails and the likes has been ignored.

More news
The Telugu Desam and its electoral ally Bharatiya Janata Party virtually turned the inaugural ceremony of new Gandhi Hospital premises into an election meeting here on Friday.
The ground, which once housed Musheerabad Jail, was bustling with yellow and saffron banners. The yellow brigade carrying huge cut outs of the caretaker Chief Minister and TD flags went on chanting zindabad slogans for Naidu.
Significantly, the Telugu Desam supremo and his ministerial colleagues took maximum advantage of the imposing structure and sprawling new premises of the hospital to silence the voices criticising the Telugu Desam government of neglecting Telangana.
Speaker after speaker including Home Minister T Devender Goud, Panchayat Raj Minister Nagam Janardhan Reddy and Union Minister of State for Urban Development Bandaru Dattatreya explained how the caretaker Chief Minister took personal interest in making the new hospital into a world class health centre for poor people of Telangana.
It is a living example speaking volumes about our commitment to develop backward regions and provide health care for the poor people of the region, Home Minister said. Recollecting his old days when he slept in the stinking rooms of the hospital attending to his ailing father, Goud said inauguration of the new building would go down in history and the people of the region would forever remember Chandrababu Naidu.
Taking a dig at the Congress leaders, though indirectly, the Home Minister said despite several people from Telangana occupying highest positions in the government, the region did not achieve any development and it was only after TD’s emergence that backward areas were being developed.
Panchayat Raj Minister and Tourism Minister T Srinivas Yadav said poor people from the length and breadth of Telangana would be visiting Gandhi Hospital for treatment and they would be highly thankful to the caretaker chief minister for providing them world class facilities.
Naidu too played the Telangana card and said his government decided to develop Gandhi Hospital into a model hospital with the sole objective of providing advanced medicare to the people of Telangana.
Earlier, Naidu inaugurated the 10-storied hospital building and Gandhi Medical College building which were constructed on a sprawling 13 acre land which once housed Musheerabad Central Prison. The 1,600-bed hospital will soon be equipped with the state-of-the art equipment costing around Rs 20 crore.

Gandhi Medical College Hyderabad- History ( the article published in Housecall magazine)
The other famous medical college of Hyderabad Gandhi Medical College
Though the rest of India had long been independent, the state of Hyderabad remained under the seventh Nizam, a little country surrounded by independent India on all sides remaining aloof and untouched by what was happening in the rest of the country (two years were to pass before the Indian government took over Hyderabad in a Police Action).
The Nizam’s Hyderabad, as it was then known, not only spread over the eight districts of Telangana, but also included two districts of present-day Karnataka, Raichur, and Gulbarga, and areas of Marathwada thereby giving birth to a unique language: a mixture of Telugu, Urdu, Marathi, and some words that are typically Hyderabadi. To provide for the medical needs of this entire area and to train young doctors there was only Osmania Medical College and Hospital, which understandably was insufficient to meet the demands of the ailing.
Dr Nizamuddin, a well-known doctor and highly qualified TB specialist with an MRCP to his credit, felt that it was high time that a new college be started in the state of Hyderabad, augmenting the strength of the highly acclaimed Osmania.
An executive member of Hyderabad Medical Society, he sought the help of Col Waghray to broach the matter with the Nizam and facilitate the process. In later years, the colonel was able to procure from the government a lease on the land at Basheer Bagh. All that was now needed was an entree to academic bodies so that his status as an educationist was accepted. The Anwar-ul-Uloom Trust, of which he was a member, was running schools and a college at Mallepally, and his position as an executive member of this organization gave him the necessary background as an educationist. Soon Dr Ansari, a pharmacology professor from Osmania, and Dr Jabbar, a radiologist still in service, joined hands with him. The Hyderabad branch of the Indian Medical Association was involved with the enterprise right from the outset.
One fine day in June 1954, an ad appeared in the local papers, as also in those of other states, calling for students to come “to study medicine at People’s Medical College, Asif Nagar, Hyderabad”. Four students from Madhya Pradesh, three from Maharashtra, one from Kerala, and a few from Hyderabad boldly applied for these seats and came to Hyderabad to become doctors. Among those from Hyderabad were those who had failed to get admission to Osmania that year.
They had paid the royal sum of thirteen hundred rupees for the privilege of this admission, but on arrival at Hyderabad they were disappointed to see tin sheds awaiting them and a handful of classmates hanging about the place. It appeared that there were noclassrooms, no teachers, and no recognition for this new People’s Medical College. The students were kept pleasurably occupied playing cricket and enjoying picnics at Gandipet, and trips to the movies so they did not lose heart and run away.
Classes actually began only in September 1954, as getting together a sufficient number of teachers was a Herculean task, assuming that Dr Nizamuddin could keep the student flock together and in good spirits. He showed in his register Dr Hyder Ali Khan, a professor of anatomy from Osmania who was to retire in six months, and claimed that he was presently working with them on a part time basis and would join them on retirement. Dr S A Samad, a private practitioner of Kachiguda, a crowded locality in Hyderabad, taught physiology. “He came on a bicycle to teach us,” say some of the students of the first batch who have vivid memories of those turbulent early years.
When a few students like Dr K Dayanand Reddy began pestering Dr Nizamuddin about when the college would receive recognition (“All our originals were held by Dr Nizamuddin thereby preventing us from going elsewhere, “Admission nako saab, originals de do saab,’ we would say”), he would show them some money and then point toward the gate saying, “Yeh raha paisa, woh raha gate”, never actually letting this happen.
In 1956 the state of Andhra Pradesh was formed, and People’s Medical College came under the umbrella of the state government and was then called Gandhi Medical College. Eventually the first batch, perhaps in recognition of the hardships they had undergone, came to be called the forty pillars of Gandhi Medical College. The first batch was now about to begin their clinical years and the KEM Hospital was requisitioned for the purpose. A century old hospital, first commissioned in 1851 as the infirmary with three wards, grew into the Cantonment Hospital with ninety beds and later became King Edward Memorial Hospital in 1913, and finally in 1958 was privileged to become Gandhi Hospital, a recognized teaching institution that grew steadily in stature, becoming the first hospital to have performed open heart surgery in Andhra Pradesh in 1977 under Dr C R Rajagopalan.
When it first became Gandhi Hospital it was shifted to the present building that was government property and it was planned that some of the buildings of the adjacent Lady Hydari Club would be included. The latter was government property leased to the club and the students rightfully felt that the hospital was more deserving of government largesse than a club. How they acquired this property remains a colourful story in the annals of the GMC. After having patiently waited for decades for the club to turn over their buildings to the hospital, the Gandhians, says Dr K Ramesh Reddy (now a consultant paediatric surgeon), first went on a hunger strike and when push came to shove, in a very un-Gandhian move, smuggled out skeletons from the anatomy theatre at three in the morning and decoratively hung them in the club’s anteroom, and for good measure, adorned them with a cadaver or two. The then chief minister N T Rama Rao and the club conceded defeat and handed over some of its buildings, which became a part of Gandhi Hospital, providing the teachers and students with enough room to comfortably accommodate the thousand plus inpatients. The efforts of the students were largely instrumental in this acquisition, their gift of gratitude to their beloved college.
With everything in place, including excellent teachers like Drs Prasada Rao and G Subba Rao for surgery, Drs G Narsing Rao, N R A Swamy, and K Ram Das for general medicine, and Drs B S Surti and J V Desai as gynaecologists, it was time to battle for recognition. It is said that the British Medical Council recognized this college earlier than many others in Andhra.
Gandhi Hospital had an innovation rarely seen in medical history. Dr Subba Rao, as the superintendent in the early days, built a gallery system in the operation theatres and provided the students with binoculars to better view the operations in progress. His emphasis on discipline was such that the then chief minister Sanjeeva Reddy was stopped by the security when he came after visiting hours.
A common amenity like the lift was reserved for patients only, while doctors were expected to be agile on their feet and run up the steps. He was equally particular that the monthly audit, an introspective exercise into the reasons for failure, be attended by the house surgeons. “This is a time to learn,” was his dictum.
Another specialty of Gandhi was microphones in all lecture halls. In later years, when Dr P Seeniah, a surgery professor, came to a class the microphone was not functioning, but the professor assured the students that he would speak at a pitch that would be heard by all, and in a booming voice taught the class. Dr Raja Reddy, a student of the ‘57 batch was the first to start the neurosurgery department, and his pioneering work on fluorosis will always remain Gandhi Medical’s signal contribution to the field of medicine.
Gandhi Medical College has had a close association with cricket, having treated Mohinder Amarnath for a skull fracture after he was struck by a Richard Hadlee ball, and another cricketer for a nasal injury. They laid claim to the World Cup victory and kept the Prudential Cup in 1983 just for a bit! Through the good offices of Dr Ram Mohan, a member of the cricket association of Hyderabad, the college was able to retain the Prudential Cup for a while, on its way to Fateh Maidan. The headlines of the papers the following day screamed, “Gandhi Medical College has the Prudential Cup”!
The college has always nurtured a close-knit Gandhian feeling. Perhaps it is the relatively small intake of students or perhaps, say some, it is the little corridor that connects both the important buildings: “Everyone has to keep crossing this corridor any number of times, and we run into one another so often that we know everyone!”
Whatever the reason, once a Gandhian always a Gandhian, wherever they may be; many have made names for themselves in foreign lands and many have stayed behind to contribute substantively to the field of medicine in India.

Message from college website-by Dr Raja reddy
Fellow Students of Gandhi,
Our college came into being on September 14th 1954 and was named as People's Medical College. It was taken over by the Government in 1956 and renamed as Gandhi Medical College. Initially college was housed in Humayun Nagar near S.D Hospital and shifted to present site, Bashirbagh in 1958. King Edward Memorial Hospital also has been renamed as Gandhi Hospital. Our hospital has a very long history having been opened way back in 1851. It came to be known as 'Cantonment' Hospital in 1900 and 'K.E.M.' Hospital in 1913. Hopefully both our college and hospital will move into 17 acre complex in Musheerabad by the end of 2002 if not by the time of our golden jubilee. 5000 graduate and 1000 postgraduate students passed through the portals of our college so far.
All of us have nostalgic memories of our college, hospital, teachers and classmates. Beacuse of those times when avenues were open, most of us are scattered around the world, mostly in U.S.A, Canada, UK, Middle East, Australia, Europe, Africa and neibouring countries.
All of us have contributed for the advancement of our profession and some achieved heights of glory in their chosen specialties. Few left medicine and became housewives, beuticians, actors; press correspondents; business tycoons, politicians and some even became teachers of English.
Golden Juilee of our college is in 2004AD. As we are getting older we would like to know more about our friends and exchange memories. Directory is an effort in this direction. It is not easy to make it complete unless everybody helps. It is also planned to make an album of important photographs. Following are the names of students, graduate and postgraduate listed year wise of their joining college. You are requested to inform if there are any spelling mistakes and suggest addition of family names in case of our lady members. Kindly provide your qualifications, specialty, and date of birth, spouse's name and the address preferably by e-mail. Those who become members of the Alumni Association will get regular mail, listing the activities and the news.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
150 years! It appears as the other day. Standing here how many events I might have witnessed! For how many needy patients,I might have extended my support! I have see, generation after generation coming to me at time of needs and taking shelter.
Modest beginnings
I remember me starting as infirmary with three wards in 1851 looking after the British residents of Secunderabad with a General Maternity and a ward for paupers. The concept of caring for the poor might have started from the day one. I remember colone Thompson expanding to a cantonment hospital at the beginning of 20th century with 95 beds form funds collected as a memorial to the late king Emperor Edward VII.
Living as king Edward
I vividly remember breaking of world war I and alter I being named as King Edward Memorial Hospital in the year 1913.
With my speck and clean wards, green lawns, majestic central stair case and royal lift, I was in the eyes of everyone. The British, Parasis and the locals were my regular patrons and donated generously in the memory of their dear ones and more and more wards were added.
I saw whole of India and later Hyderabad becoming independent and the British leaving the power but leaving behind their legacy, contribution to the society and beautiful monuments.
Some new guests started coming to me, the medical students from the newly started Peoples medical college, later called as Gandhi Medical College. They brought colour, vigour and a new dimension to me. I was made a teaching hospital and to my "hearts" desire I was named as Gandhi Hospital on the name of great apostle of peace. It was the year 1958.
Gandhi's March
My mission of serving the poor and smoothening the suffering reached new heights as new specialty departments were added. My new O.T block, a dream project of the Dr. Subba Rao was an addition of par excellence whose passion for my development and his vision for future were exemplary. A new maternity and pediatric wing was added and started attending to the mother and the child.
Under single umbrella my family started functioning, making me as the only General hospital in twin cities with all specialties available.
My achievements and services most of the time go unrecognized. How proud I was when the first open heart surgery was performed at my place in whole of Andhra Pradesh in the year 1976. My surgery, orthopedics, neuro surgery and cardio thoracic surgery departments were second to none in their achievements and service. My family comprises of nearly 300 Doctors, 300 Nursing staff, 300 Fourth-class employees, 200 Junior Doctors, 150 Nursing students and 1012 patients in various wards. My daily out patients are about 1000 to
1500 coming from various parts of the city and neighboring districts of Telangana. I am fortunate and privileged to serve the poor for so many years with the love and affection of my family members.
I saw changing horizons on the medical field, beginning of corporate culture and corporate hospitals, In spite of my age with leaking roofs and falling walls, chocking drains I was there serving the needy in the hour of need, a true Gandhian.
I recollect the day on which the late CM. N.T. Rama Rao Garu realizing my contribution to the medical fraternity decided to handover the jail premises to Gandhi Hospital and the college and laying the foundation stone in 1987 into he jail premises.
I also remember the anxious days when some clouds of doubts were hovering over regarding the handing over of the land after shifting of the jail. How can I forget the silent protest demonstrated by the Doctors and the well-wishers for a period of 201 days. My hear skipped few beats when our beloved Hom. CM Nara Chandra Babu Naidu Garu announced the handing over the jail land to construction of modern college and hospital complex in one of the glittering function. I bow my head in appreciation of what you people have done for me in this direction.
New leaves...New buildings
Now when I see the new complex is getting ready for inauguration, my feelings are multiple. I am told, I am going to have floor area of 9 lakh square feet with 8 floors with separate block for emergency and OP departments. I am told that I will be equipped with state-of-the art equipment costing about 20 crores with CT Scan, MRI Scan, Color Doppler, New cath lab, New Open Heart Surgery Equipment and Integrated theatre system by which one can show the surgery to any where in the world. I am floored by the affection that you have shown me on my grand 150th year. I thank everyone from bottom of my heart for this wonderful gesture.
With rejuvenated spirit and commitment, I once again get myself dedicated to the noble task of serving the poor and achieve excellent in the services that are going to be provided. Let me carry forward an ever-advancing civilization for the people of Andhra Pradesh.
We at Gandhi are privileged-to serve the suffering.

I vividly remember breaking of world war I and alter I being named as King Edward Memorial Hospital in the year 1913.
With my speck and clean wards, green lawns, majestic central stair case and royal lift, I was in the eyes of everyone. The British, Parasis and the locals were my regular patrons and donated generously in the memory of their dear ones and more and more wards were added.
I saw whole of India and later Hyderabad becoming independent and the British leaving the power but leaving behind their legacy, contribution to the society and beautiful monuments.
Some new guests started coming to me, the medical students from the newly started Peoples medical college, later called as Gandhi Medical College. They brought colour, vigour and a new dimension to me. I was made a teaching hospital and to my "hearts" desire I was named as Gandhi Hospital on the name of great apostle of peace. It was the year 1958.
Gandhi's March
My mission of serving the poor and smoothening the suffering reached new heights as new specialty departments were added. My new O.T block, a dream project of the Dr. Subba Rao was an addition of par excellence whose passion for my development and his vision for future were exemplary. A new maternity and pediatric wing was added and started attending to the mother and the child.
Under single umbrella my family started functioning, making me as the only General hospital in twin cities with all specialties available.
My achievements and services most of the time go unrecognized. How proud I was when the first open heart surgery was performed at my place in whole of Andhra Pradesh in the year 1976. My surgery, orthopedics, neuro surgery and cardio thoracic surgery departments were second to none in their achievements and service. My family comprises of nearly 300 Doctors, 300 Nursing staff, 300 Fourth-class employees, 200 Junior Doctors, 150 Nursing students and 1012 patients in various wards. My daily out patients are about 1000 to
1500 coming from various parts of the city and neighboring districts of Telangana. I am fortunate and privileged to serve the poor for so many years with the love and affection of my family members.
I saw changing horizons on the medical field, beginning of corporate culture and corporate hospitals, In spite of my age with leaking roofs and falling walls, chocking drains I was there serving the needy in the hour of need, a true Gandhian.
I recollect the day on which the late CM. N.T. Rama Rao Garu realizing my contribution to the medical fraternity decided to handover the jail premises to Gandhi Hospital and the college and laying the foundation stone in 1987 into he jail premises.
I also remember the anxious days when some clouds of doubts were hovering over regarding the handing over of the land after shifting of the jail. How can I forget the silent protest demonstrated by the Doctors and the well-wishers for a period of 201 days. My hear skipped few beats when our beloved Hom. CM Nara Chandra Babu Naidu Garu announced the handing over the jail land to construction of modern college and hospital complex in one of the glittering function. I bow my head in appreciation of what you people have done for me in this direction.
New leaves...New buildings
Now when I see the new complex is getting ready for inauguration, my feelings are multiple. I am told, I am going to have floor area of 9 lakh square feet with 8 floors with separate block for emergency and OP departments. I am told that I will be equipped with state-of-the art equipment costing about 20 crores with CT Scan, MRI Scan, Color Doppler, New cath lab, New Open Heart Surgery Equipment and Integrated theatre system by which one can show the surgery to any where in the world. I am floored by the affection that you have shown me on my grand 150th year. I thank everyone from bottom of my heart for this wonderful gesture.
With rejuvenated spirit and commitment, I once again get myself dedicated to the noble task of serving the poor and achieve excellent in the services that are going to be provided. Let me carry forward an ever-advancing civilization for the people of Andhra Pradesh.
We at Gandhi are privileged-to serve the suffering.
