Our Parent Institution – A Legacy of Excellence

Our parent institution, Malabar Medical College Hospital & Research Centre (MMCHR), located in Calicut, Kerala, holds the distinction of being the first private medical college in the state to be established with an initial intake of 150 MBBS seats. Founded in 2010, MMCHR is NABH and NAAC accredited, and has since expanded its intake to 200 MBBS students.

For over 15 years, MMCHR has produced competent and compassionate doctors, supported by an eminent faculty—many from the prestigious Government Medical College, Calicut—bringing decades of academic scholarship, clinical mastery, and a legacy of accolades.
