16 Departments of Parul Institute of Medical Sciences and Research add Postgraduate Seats

Parul Institute of Medical Science and Research has acquired permissions for a total of 53 seats in 16 of its postgraduate departments which include General Medicine, Paediatrics, Dermatology, General Surgery, Orthopaedics, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Ophthalmology, Radiology, Anaesthesia, Pathology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology and Community Medicine. It is the only college in Gujarat to start post-graduation in the current academic year 2021-22.

From the current academic year, the institute has acquired permissions for the seats and will go a long way in supplementing the increasing demand for highly trained medical experts in the field of medicine. This addition will make the total number of postgraduate seats (MD/MS) available in Gujarat to approximately 1963 seats.

"Parul Institute of Medical Sciences & Research is the only college in Gujarat to start post-graduatio in the current academic year", said Dr Geetika Madan Patel, Medical Director at Parul University. "This year, our college has also received recognition for the undergraduate programme (MBBS) for one year from the National Medical Commission. The number of postgraduate seats in Gujarat is still less and many students passing out MBBS go out of the country or state for pursuing post-graduation or other fellowship programmes, so we plan to increase the number of postgraduate seats in the time to come", she added.

The affiliated hospital of this Medical College, Parul Sevashram Hospital is one of the medical college hospitals of Gujarat to have full-fledged super-specialty departments which have been serving the medical needs of the people in the areas of cardiology and cardiovascular surgery, nephrology, urology, neurology & neurosurgery, paediatric surgery, oncosurgery amongst other general specialty departments. Through its well-developed healthcare infrastructure, the institute has been able to provide its medical students with the finest medical training through practical training from its expert medical resources.

"We have equipped our medical facilities with the latest medical technologies which are being adopted and utilised across all our wings such as operation theatres, critical care units and other departments. This will further help the students in staying up to date with the best and latest medical practises nationwide and worldwide", said the Director, Dr. Komal Patel.

"I am positive that our established facilities and dedicated expert resources will surely give us an upper edge in ensuring a complete and comprehensive training to our postgraduate students who will be joining their respective departments very soon,'' said Parul University's President, Dr Devanshu Patel.
