About Us
THE DEPARTMENT OF PATHOLOGY, GOVERNMENT MEDICAL COLLEGE, KOTTAYAM came into existence in 1963. PROFESSOR DR.R.SARASWATHY AMMAL took charge as Head of the Department on 25-1-1963 and she was assisted in her activities by Dr. CKS HAMEED, DR.K.K.RAGHAVA WARRIER and DR.NIRMALA DEVI

In 2023 we conducted the 6th BKON annual CME on April 1st , 2023. Platelet aggregometry and complete coagulation work up was started in the hematopatology division in 2021. Our histopathology lab is equipped with automated processor, automated stainer and automated IHC machines. Cytology division is using cytospin for fluid processing.
Our department consistent of highly qualified and enthusiastic faculty and lab technicians. Our faculty Dr.RenuThambi, Dr.Jayalekshmy P.L have been awarded FRCP in Pathology recently and others are on the way. Our postgraduate students Dr.Soumya ,Dr.Suryagayathri , Dr. Ann Mili, Dr.Aswathy, Dr.Rini Rachel Philip have been awarded ranks in MD pathology by KUHS.
