Which is better, Maulana Azad Medical College, AIIMS Bhubaneswar, or Bhopal?
All three medical colleges; Maulana Azad Medical College, AIIMS Bhubaneswar, and AIIMS Bhopal are great institutes offering top-quality education. But AIIMS as a brand is better than MAMC considering the better college environment it offers. Nowadays, Bachelor's degree is more like a qualifying degree, and the better tag you are associated with the better branch value your degree holds. It’s exactly why institutes like IIT & AIIMS are preferred as they give you a varied outlook on the prospects of your career and provide better exposure.
As an AIIMS student, you will have better exposure to research, innovation, management, entrepreneurship, etc. This opens doors for more careers than just a normal clinician. The only two major drawbacks it has are
- Huge patient inflow: The best centers in America focus on quality over quantity.
- Lack of PG reservations
JIPMER is a great institute, even better than MAMC. However, the location, language, and culture barrier might be an issue for North Indians.
MAMC’s high intake is a major drawback of the institute with a student population as high as 250. Even the best faculty won't be able to manage 250 students in one go.
Considering all options, AIIMS is the best option for you!
Does AIIMS Bhopal have a dress code?
No, AIIMS Bhopal does not have a dress code or uniform. However, to maintain the decorum of the institute students are expected to wear decent clothes.
- Girls are expected to wear knee-length kurtas and leggings preferably Indian attire
- Boys are expected to be dressed formally and casually and are not allowed
Students in the first year have to be more conscious of their dressing, especially those belonging to the Anatomy department.
How is an MS in surgery at Allied AIIMS Rishikesh, Jodhpur, Bhubaneswar, Raipur, Patna, and Bhopal?
General surgery at any of the AIIMS provides a lesser hands-on experience as there are so many MCh residents/Non-Academic. A surgery resident at AIIMS Rishikesh is posted in General Surgery as well as through all the surgical super-specialties. There will be a lot to learn here and the faculties are also good. Residents are made to do minor surgeries independently like Hydrocoele, Appendicectomy, etc. But in AIIMS you will just be assisting in most of the surgeries. You might be allowed to do these surgeries in the senior year although the number is very less. The institute usually handles complex cases so you might have little knowledge on general cases. The emergency cases are managed by JR and SR only. So you will get a lot of experience here.
You will be doing very minimal work on surgical super-specialties like Plastics, Surgical Gastro, Surgical onco, Neurosurgery, Pediatric Surgery, Urology et cetera. A unique aspect of AIIMS Rishikesh is its separate IBCC (Integrated Breast care center) under Dept of General Surgery which focuses on the multifaceted management of Breast cases in one place. So you will get the best hands-on experience here.
AIIMS Rishikesh General Surgery has 3 units. Each unit focuses on one or two of the organ systems like the colorectal unit, Hepato-pancreatic-biliary unit, etc.
Despite it all, I think pursuing surgery from a state college is better than the central institutes unless you are willing to do MCh in a particular branch.
