HISTORY
Maulana Azad Medical College and associated hospital complex consist of four integral units, names Maulana Azad Medical College, Lok Nayak Hospital, Govind Ballabh Pant Hospital and Guru Nanak Eye Centre. The college was established twenty two years after the commissioning of Irwin Hospital, a well established general hospital drawing patients mainly from Delhi and from the neighboring states of Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Rajasthan.

This ideally situated general hospital with long years of reputation paved the way for realization of this medical college.

The college made its humble beginning in hospital block of Irwin (Lok Nayak) hospital 1958. The foundation of main building of the college was laid by Pandit Govind Ballabh Pant, the then Home Minister of India, on 24th October, 1959. this building was declared open by the first Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru on 26th February, 1961.

In 1964, Govind Ballabh Pant Hospital was added to the complex to provide training facilities and super-specialties. The Guru Nanak Eye Centre came into existence on 20th December, 1977 with the commissioning of a separate out patient department for ophthalmic diseases. The wards for the indoor patients were added in 1986. The long awaited demand of the residents of Union Territory of Delhi for a Dental wing was met with the establishment of a separate Dental Wing in 1983. This wing has become fully established Dental College since 2003.

DEANS MESSAGE
It has been my privilege to be associated with Maulana Azad Medical College since the last 23 years. I am honored to now take over as the Dean of this premier institution. It has been a long and arduous journey since I joined as a lecturer in 1981.

That this medical college has one of the best faculties in the country is an acknowledged fact.

It is this reason that Maulana Azad Medical College is chosen over others by the brightest of students. The students of MAMC are its pride and its strength. I hope to be able to interact with both, the faculty as well as the students and will try to address any problem that they bring, to the best of my abilities.

It will be my effort that all parts of this college may function together harmoniously. It is my hope and dream that we take this institution to unprecedented heights. Towards this aim, I seek your sincere support.
