Healthcare Pillar: Smt. Sucheta Kriplani Hospital (SSKH) & Kalawati Saran Children's Hospital

The college is attached to two major hospitals that serve as its primary teaching facilities.

• Flagship Hospitals: LHMC utilizes two key teaching hospitals:

• Smt. Sucheta Kriplani Hospital (SSKH): The main hospital for general medicine, surgery, and OBG.

• Kalawati Saran Children's Hospital (KSCH): A large, dedicated pediatric hospital for specialized child health training.

• Scale & Services: Combined, these hospitals offer extensive facilities.

• Capacity: Total bed capacity is over 1100 beds.

• Services: Provides comprehensive tertiary care across all major clinical specialties and numerous super-specialties. It features 24x7 Emergency, Trauma, advanced Critical Care (NICU, PICU), modern Operation Theatres, and extensive OPD/IPD services.

• Patient Load: The hospitals handle a very high volume of patients, providing students with rich, hands-on clinical exposure.

Educational Engine: SSKH (for adult medicine) and KSCH (for pediatrics) are the core clinical training grounds for MBBS students and postgraduate residents.

Fee Structure: Highly Subsidized Central Government Fees

As a Central Government medical college under the Ministry of Health, the fees are extremely low and highly subsidized.

Campus Living: Hostel Facilities

• Accommodation: Separate hostel blocks are available for female students (UGs) and postgraduate residents. Accommodation is generally available and strongly encouraged.

• Amenities: Hostels provide basic furnishings, common rooms, study rooms, and mess facilities.

• Dining: Mess facilities are available for all hostellers.

• Cost: Hostel and mess fees are additional to the tuition fees but are highly economical.

• Hostel Fee (Annual Rent): Nominal (e.g., ~ ₹10,000 - ₹15,000).

Mess Charges (Monthly): Paid monthly based on actual expenses, typically ranging from ~₹3,500 to ₹5,000 per month.

Admissions Process: NEET & Central/State Counselling

• Getting Admitted (MBBS/MD/MS): Admission is strictly and exclusively based on qualifying ranks in NEET-UG (for MBBS) or NEET-PG (for MD/MS).

• Counselling Process: Seat allotment is handled by two different bodies:

• 15% All India Quota (AIQ): Seats are filled through the MCC (Medical Counselling Committee) counselling, open to female students from all over India.

• 85% Delhi University Quota (DU Quota): Seats are reserved for female candidates who have completed their 11th and 12th standard from schools in Delhi-NCR. These seats are filled through the MCC Counselling process under the 'Central University' category (specifically Delhi University).

• Always check the official DU (fmsc.ac.in) and MCC (mcc.nic.in) websites for counselling schedules and procedures.

Career Pathways & Placements

• Career Path: As a premier government medical college, the career path for graduates is excellent.

• Internship: MBBS graduates complete a mandatory 1-year rotatory internship at SSKH and KSCH, for which they receive a stipend (approx. ₹26,300 per month).

• Post-Graduation: The extensive clinical exposure and the DU/LHMC reputation make graduates highly competitive for PG seats (via NEET-PG/INI-CET) or immediately employable as Medical Officers. The institute offers over 190 of its own PG seats, providing a strong in-house pathway.
