Secretary Maharaj’s Message

This centre, a branch of the Ramakrishna Order, follows the ideal and principles of Sri Ramakrishna – “Service to Jiva is Service to Shiva” (One who serves man serves God indeed). Since its humble beginning in 1932 as a maternity hospital, this centre has grown into a 684 bedded with multi-discipline. This centre is providing health care at an affordable price to socio-economically weaker, under-privileged and needy patients.

Over the time this institute has established its recognition as a very trusted, reputed and respected healthcare institute in West Bengal. This has been achieved by the enormous contributions made over the years by Faculty, Resident, Nursing Staff, Administrative staff and others. We are also thankful for getting constant support from Govt. of West Bengal.

The Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan Vivekananda Institute of Medical Sciences (RKMVIMS) was recognised by the University of Calcutta for post-graduate training and research in medicine in 1963, the year of Swami Vivekananda’s Birth Centenary. Presently it is affiliated under the West Bengal University of Health Sciences for its Postgraduate Degree, Diploma and various paramedical courses.

Our VIMS college offers various PG courses in medicine and Allied Sciences. Here, our mission is to prepare future physicians who are not only knowledgeable but also deeply compassionate and innovative in their practice. From day one, our students are immersed in real-world healthcare settings, learning from experienced professionals and engaging in hands-on experiences that bridge theory with practice.

Join us on this exciting journey of discovery and growth. Together, let’s redefine medical education and make a positive impact on the future of healthcare.

Swami Nityakamananda
