History
The idea of a medical college was conceived by Sri Achyuta Samanta when such a private college in Orissa was thought unrealistic.The ground realities were tough but he had the courage to move ahead with the project even if there were nothing optimistic to look forward to.
The college building was constructed first.Subsequently, in August 2004 faculties were appointed.Up to that point Mr Satyajit Mohanty,CEO played the lead role in initiating things.
Prof.Radhe Shyam Panda soon took over as the principal of KIMS .It was realised that MCI rules are fast changing.They were getting more strict regarding giving permission to new Medical colleges.The hospital at KIMS was extended to take up more indoor patients.OPD timings were extended and better services were provided for free.All were taking place in a make shift hospital in the Godown area of the former MAGNETIC company.
On June 2005 a new hospital building was made at the place of the olde makeshift hospital.It was completed in a record time of 60 days.The hospital acquired new equipments like a CT scan.It grew up to a higher level.Towards larer part of the year Dr R.N.Samanta joined in as the Hospital Administrator.He heralded a new change to the hospital.It began to run in a more professional way.His leaving the institution due to unknown reasons caused concerns for some time .
2006 saw the beginning of the inspection processes by the MCI. Inspections and negative results got disappointments but hope was always there.June saw the coming of Prof S.C.Dash an eminent nephrologist from AIIMS as the superintendent.he later took over as the Principal of KIMS. A noted nephrologist ,he took the institute to its recognition from the MCI. That was in June 2007. The institute was formally given permission to start MBBS course in 2007The hospital part of KIMS is set to get a big leap forward with the inception of a new four hospital complex
