The Mahatma Gandhi Mission trust popularly known as MGM was established on 20 December 1982 in India with the aim to provide quality education to future doctors and medical scientists and by advancing knowledge in all fields of health sciences through meaningful and ethical research. Trust has focused to expand the academic and health care services to all. The MGM trust, which is the parent body of the MGM Institute of Health Sciences (MGMIHS), has recognized the need for promoting, medical education in the country. It has been the endeavor that no financially constrained or underprivileged person is deprived of health care support. To match the growing demands of health care to the society, the tertiary health care facility to the common man will have to be improved and made affordable. To accomplish its vision, two medical colleges were established in Maharashtra, one in Navi Mumbai in August 1989 and another in Aurangabad in January 1990.
