All India Institutes of Medical Sciences Rishikesh

Set in natural beauty and close to the sacred Ganges, All India Institute of Medical Sciences Rishikesh was strategically located to address regional imbalances in healthcare services, research, and training. It was established under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojna’s first phase and supported to be an autonomous body by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (Amendment) Bill, 2012. The first batch of 50 MBBS and BSc Nursing students enrolled in 2012 while outpatient and inpatient services started in mid-2013.
Since then it has metamorphosed into an institute of national importance, with a current annual enrollment of 125 MBBS, 100 BSc Nursing, nearly 30 MSc Nursing, and more than 700 postgraduate students. Besides running MD/MS, DM/MCh, PDCC, MSc, and Ph.D. courses, AIIMS Rishikesh now runs numerous medical & allied courses. These activities are mentored by nearly 300 faculty members.
