Chairman’s Message
It is a matter of great pride for us that Dr. Moopen’s Medical College, which was established 10 years back has become a stable and sustainable medical educational destination in the country. The college with an intake of 150 medical students has successfully nurtured a large number of excellent doctors as well as started postgraduate courses. Because of the excellent academic excellence reflected in the results in the KUHS examinations along with the discipline and ambience of the campus, it is one of the most preferred colleges in the private sector in the state by parents and students.
Being a medical teacher long back, it was my earnest wish to have the opportunity to train future doctors which have been accomplished by the establishment of this college. While a doctor can treat patients, it gives much more happiness when a large number of doctors who come out of the medical college treating patients across the world produce a multiplier effect. As we are molding more and more professionals for this noble mission, I feel very accomplished that my dream is realized. This was possible only due to the persistence and perseverance of the faculty led by the passionate Dean with the able support of the administration.
Apart from churning out medical graduates, the attached Medical College Hospital is providing high-quality treatment to a large number of patients in the hilly and tribal district of Wayanad. The hospital has become the most preferred referral destination for other doctors and hospitals in the district and has served and saved millions of patients. The institution also provides meaningful employment to thousands of people mostly from the local population. The establishment of the large campus with other courses like Nursing and Pharmacy around the Medical College Hospital has transformed the socio-economic status of the Meppadi region while providing training to doctors, nurses, and paramedics for the country.The vision of Dr. Moopen’s Medical College is to become one of the best 10 private medical colleges in the country in the near future. Looking at various aspects including the starting of postgraduate courses along with Research and Innovation in various areas, I am sure that we will be able to achieve this goal. The committed and passionate support given by the faculty, students and parents to the institution is highly appreciated. Let us all drive forward to achieve the shared dream of taking Dr. Moopen’s Medical College to the pinnacle of medical education in the country.
