Mahalaxmi Institute of Medical Sciences offers a comprehensive 2-year Diploma in Community Medical Services and Surgery, which includes a six-month internship in allopathic medicine. This program is part of the Prime Minister Unregistered Doctor Upgradation Scheme, approved by the Government of India, National Health Mission, Undergraduate Medical Education Board, University Grants Commission and the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare. The scheme allows graduates to establish and operate primary health care centers in both urban and rural areas across India, provided they have a no-objection certificate from the district’s Chief Medical and Health Officer. Practitioners completing this course will be authorized to prescribe essential medicines as per World Health Organization guidelines, refer serious cases to specialized care, and issue necessary medical certificates. This program aims to enhance the capability of community medical practitioners, ensuring they can deliver effective and standardized care while contributing to the broader healthcare infrastructure.
