About Khyber Medical College
Peshawar, a city of over 2.6 million citizens, is situated in the Western part of the Country and close to the historical and famous Khyber Pass. The City is an old settlement and has maintained a historical atmosphere. Khyber Medical College, which is situated at the doorstep of the University of Peshawar, occupies the site of an ancient Buddhist academy.
In 1954, the foundation stone of Khyber Medical College, as faculty of Medicine, of Peshawar University, was laid by the then Governor General of Pakistan, Mr. Ghulam Muhammad. The College started functioning in 1955 with an enrollment of fifty students with meager facilities. From 1955 to the present the college has undergone tremendous development. It remained under the administrative control of the health department after parting ways from Peshawar University in 1975.
Presently, the college and hospital have been given administrative and financial autonomy by the Government of K.P.K and are working under the institutional management committee, headed by the Chief Executive. This will certainly overcome the problems faced by the faculty members, students, and the general Public.
Khyber Medical College is a pioneer institution in KPK in medical education and has created a name for itself at national and international levels through the dedicated work of its staff and students. In fact, it can be proudly called as the mother institution for rest of the medical and dental colleges and other allied medical institutions established in KPK over the past twenty-five years.
Today, Khyber Medical College enrolls 287 students yearly, and our graduates, numbering over 15000, are providing health care, not only in K.P.K and FATA but also in the rest of the country. In addition, our graduates are holding key positions both at home and abroad. Beside undergraduate medical education, the college offers teaching and research facilities to the postgraduate students, i.e. M.Phil, in all basic Medical Sciences, FCPS in Clinical as well as basic medical sciences, and minor diplomas in many specialties. The college is affiliated with Khyber Medical University and is recognized by PMDC. General Medical Council of UK, Ireland, and licensing authority of USA. Khyber Teaching Hospital, established in 1976, is attached to the college for teaching/training purposes. It is a 1600-bed hospital, which maintains high standards with competent medical staff and sophisticated equipment.
