Pankajakasthuri Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital in Trivandrum was founded as Kerala’s first self-financed Ayurveda Medical College at Kattakada, 18 kilometres from the state capital of Thiruvananthapuram.
On August 28, 2002, the then-Hon’ble Chief Minister of Kerala, Shri. A.K. Antony inaugurated and dedicated this college to the public.
The institution is being established as part of an effort to raise awareness of Ayurveda, the traditional Indian method of healing and healthy balanced living, both in India and overseas.
Their learning materials are constantly revised and updated in order to provide students with the best e-learning resources accessible.
The most significant milestone in the history of the Pankajakasthuri Group is the establishment of a fully functional Ayurvedic college, supported by a 150-bed hospital guided by the Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM), with state-of-the-art infrastructure and a highly professional and qualified teaching faculty.
At both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels, the college delivers exceptional standards in practical, clinical training, and research facilities.
