How is an MS in surgery at Allied AIIMS Rishikesh, Jodhpur, Bhubaneswar, Raipur, Patna, and Bhopal?

PA
Puneet Aarya Posted On : June 4th, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences

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.

Which is better for an MBBS, AIIMS Patna, KGMC Lucknow or Grant Medical College, Mumbai?

AB
Akriti Banerjee Posted On : June 1st, 2023
lives in New Delhi

All three insulations, AIIMS Patna, KGMC Lucknow, and Grant Medical College, Mumbai, are well-respected in the field of medicine and have a strong reputation for providing quality education and training to students pursuing an MBBS degree.

AIIMS Patna is known for its top-notch infrastructure and other campus facilities and good academics. It’s the most preferable AIIMS after Delhi. KGMC Lucknow is also a decent college though I am not aware of its infrastructure. GGMC Mumbai on the other hand is the best option of the three. Here is why 

  • Its prime location plays a big role in making it the better option of the 3 institutes. Mumbai is a much more preferred city than Lucknow or Patna.
  • The patient inflow is diverse and huge enabling you to witness a variety of cases both common and rare in your UG itself.
  • Academic-wise too, this institute gives an edge over other institutes. With a well-structured curriculum and highly qualified professors, you will get an amazing learning experience 
  • Great emphasis is given to the attendance and practicals of every subject.
  • In addition to academics, this college is well known for its active extracurricular culture. It has its own Gymkhana at Marine drives in addition to various cultural, and sports events and quizzes.
  • The hostel facilities are also decent as per government standards.
  • There are around 3-4 canteens and food served here is at subsidized rates.

The above list is not exhaustive and there are many more points as to why GGMC is a better choice than AIIMS Patna and KGMC Lucknow. Ultimately, it’s your call to make. If you are after the AIIMS tag, go for AIIMS Patna but if you want to enjoy your life along with decent academics then JJ would be the best choice for you.

Which is better: AIIMS Patna or AIIMS Jodhpur?

TS
Traymbak Sethi Posted On : June 16th, 2023
Lives in Patna

AIIMS established in 2012 are mostly compared on secondary factors such as location, proximity to home, language, and reputation of the college among top rankers. Basically, it is personal preferences that make one AIIMS better than the other for someone. The cutoff and rankings should not only be taken into consideration while comparing and it is advisable to look at the bigger picture. During the early years of establishment, the top rankers preferred Jodhpur to Patna because of Bihar’s poor reputation. The subsequent batches followed the trend blindly and today too, AIIMS Jodhpur is preferable to AIIMS Patna. AIIMS Jodhpur is preferred by students from north or west India owing to the less distance from home. Additionally, the primary coaching belt lies in Kota and Delhi, making AIIMS Jodhpur a much preferable choice. Both the AIIMS pose no major language issues.

AIIMS Jodhpur enjoys a good location being an international tourist location, so you will get to experience a better college life than Patna, one of the dirtiest cities in India. The quality of life will be better for Jodhpur students.

So your first option should always be AIIMS Jodhpur followed by AIIMS Patna.

Kriti Tiwari Posted On : April 15th, 2023
M.B.B.S from All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Raipur (2024)

If you are looking to compare AIIMS Raipur and AIIMS Rishikesh, here are some points to consider:

      1. Faculty: Both institutes have elite professors, so there is no need for comparison in this regard.
      2. Department: AIIMS Rishikesh is more established in terms of the number of PG seats available.
      3. Campus: AIIMS Raipur has a bigger campus compared to Rishikesh.
      4. Neighborhood:
        • AIIMS Raipur is located in Raipur, which is a fast-growing city with easy access to various amenities and facilities, including malls. However, the city is also known for pollution and traffic.
        • AIIMS Rishikesh is located in a scenic area but lacks proper town planning. It is located an hour away from Dehra Dun and five hours from Delhi NCR.
      5. Freedom:
        • It's important to consider the amount of freedom a college offers before joining.
        • AIIMS Rishikesh had students protesting for basic human rights like not cutting electric supply to hostels during college hours.
        • AIIMS Raipur is strict but considerate.

If you prefer city life with access to amenities and facilities, AIIMS Raipur might be the better option for you. If you prefer nature and peaceful surroundings, AIIMS Rishikesh might be a better fit. Consider the department and the amount of freedom the college offers before making a decision.

IB
Illina Bhattacharyya Posted On : October 16th, 2021
Studied at The Heritage School, Kolkata (2018)

AIIMS Patna and Medical College Kolkata (MCK) both seem to have their own perks in the different areas of anyone’s interest. Here are some facts that you need to know before making any decision.

AIIMS Patna

  • Many believe that AIIMS Patna is a very new college but you can not avoid the fact that it is an AIIMS. 
  • Due to the same reason, it is very well recognized abroad so go for it if studying abroad is your goal ultimately. 
  • Also, it is well funded therefore the infrastructure and campus are of a top-notch level. 
  • The teaching faculty as well is on a better level than MCK. 
  • They have got all the co-curricular activities covered too. 

Medical College Kolkata (MCK)

  • MCK is not a centrally aided institute so the infrastructure lacks a bit more than that of AIIMS Patna. 
  • But the environment is a very healthy one without any political interference in the college procedures. 
  • The greatest perk is that it is a 180-year-old college which results in a huge alumni network. 
  • Also, if you are a student from Kolkata then you fall in the state reservation quota of 50%, unlike AIIMS. 

Both the colleges are good at their own places, choose the one that suits your requirements. This will be a major step up for your career.

PC
Pradeep Chowdhuri Posted On : June 5th, 2023
Lives in Patna

KGMU was established as early as 1905 while AIIMS Patna was established recently in 202. So the former seems to be more experienced with better opportunities and senior faculties. Let's look at these institutes one to one for a better understanding.

KGMC is one of the prominent colleges in north India and is preferred to many colleges in Delhi. The students here are called georgians

KGMC

  • The clinical exposure offered here is unmatched and it produces many skilled doctors.
  • It enjoys a central location of being in the capital city of UP.
  • KGMC has an extensive alumni base that has made significant contributions to society.
  • The 2 major flaws of KGMC are its huge batch size and the bond after MBBS.
  • KGMU has 50% reservation in PG in the state quota.
  • It receives the maximum number of serious cases of North East India 
  • The institute boasts excellent infrastructure.
  • Despite it being old, it is equipped with maximum medical instruments and is well-maintained.

AIIMS Patna

  • It's far off from the main city and thus its location might be disadvantageous to some.
  • It's relatively new and thus lacks good alumni.
  • AIIMS Patna has many better and high-quality hostel and mess facilities that aren't available in KGMC.
  • The quality of education offered at AIIMS Patna is top notch
  • The student body is more diverse, as the seats are filled from AIQ 100%. 
  • It also focuses on extracurricular in addition to the excellent academic environment and students are given a chance to explore their passions and develop as a whole.
  • No 50% reservation for PG here

All in all, considering the AIIMS tag and the fast-paced growth the institute has witnessed, AIIMS Patna is the best choice for you.
