Department of Psychiatry
Background History
The department of psychiatry of the Seth GS Medical College and K.E.M. Hospital came into existence in December 1947 – just after India became independent. From a humble beginning with a single psychiatrist – DR. N.S. Vahia, it has grown into one of the largest teaching departments.
In addition to patient care, it is active in education and research for which it has received support from WHO and UNDCP. Besides, the department is also engaged in collaborative research with other universities outside India. At present, the department has grown out of the hospital to community outreach programmes.
