As of now, the Dr Vithakrao Vikhe Patil Foundation Medical College and Hospital has nearly 80 MoUs with various state, national, and international levels which are mostly related to academics and research-oriented along with health facilities.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoUs) benefit the college from good institutions by hiring their faculties and researchers who get the knowledge to the faculty, students, and non-teaching segment.
The Dr. Vithakrao Vikhe Patil Foundation’s Medical College started its PG courses in 10 clinical-based disciplines. This year the PG seats are increasing as the college is regularly conducting multi-diagnostic camps.
Prof. Dr Sunil Natha Mhaske shared, “This year we are increasing the PG seats in various disciplines because as I said we regularly conduct multi-diagnostic camps, our hospital workload is too much as we have 990 beds which is near about 1000 beds, we are providing basic health care along with super speciality care”.
“So, there is a lack of manpower in the hospital, that’s why we are increasing the PG seats this year only and UG seats have already increased to the maximum limit i.e. 200 as permitted by NMC”, Dr Sunil added.
