We are very happy to hear, though from unofficial sources, that Gujarat Cancer Research Institute (GCRI) in Ahmedabad has been given permission by Medical Council of India to start MD in Palliative Medicine.

This makes GCRI the third institution in the country to offer this course, the first being Tata Memorial, Mumbai, and the second being All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi.

Hearty Congratulations to Dr Geeta Joshi, Dr Priti Sanghavi and their team for this achievement. Best Wishes!

    Mam, I am very much interested to enroll myself for this course.
    I have done Diploma in Palliative medicine(Cardiff university) but I could not enroll for MD COURSE due to some logistic problem.
