Sri Ramachandra Medical College & Research Institute is a Deemed University, an autonomous body primarily dedicated to the purposes of medical education, research and health care. Sprawling over 175 acres on the Chennai-Bangalore highway, the 20-year-old Sri Ramachandra Medical College and Research Institute (SRMC), has a charm of its own. The campus houses an eight-storey medical centre and medical colleges, and is home to specialities like cardiac care, diabetes and endocrinology, an interventional cath lab for interventional radiology procedures, critical care, infertility, orthopaedics, minimally-invasive and daycare surgery, neuro-care services, transplant and lithotripsy services. Over the years, it has set up a medical centre and nine medical colleges that offer 75 courses in health sciences, churns out a minimum of 3,500 students.
Quality is what drives all operations at SRMC. The latest venture is the JCI accreditation the institute expects to receive in a couple of months. Collaboration with Harvard Medical International (HMI) in September 1994 also proved to be a boon not just for the medical centre but even for the medical colleges.
