about

Our History

Our journey starts with the vision of Dr. Dnyandeo Yashwantrao Patil to make education, healthcare and sports accessible across the country.  

D.Y. Patil Medical College, founded in 1989 was the first step towards fulfilling this vision. We have come a long way, from initially being affiliated to the University of Mumbai to now being deemed University School of Medicine.

about

Founder Chancellor - Dr. Dnyandeo Yashwantrao Patil

Dr. Dnyandeo Yashwantrao Patil is an epitome of what one individual can achieve in shaping the society around him. He is the former Governor of Bihar, Tripura & West Bengal, and recipient of the prestigious Padmashree Award, Dr. D. Y. Patil is a well-known educationist and philanthropist.

He firmly believed that youth in India needed a greater platform that offered multiple opportunities to educate themselves across geographies.

He envisioned spreading education across the length and breadth of India and started the journey with the first engineering college called Ramrao Adik Institute of Technology (RAIT) in Navi Mumbai in the year 1983. There has been no turning back since with the DY Patil Group taking giant leaps in the fields of education, healthcare & sports under his mentorship.

One of his burning visions has been to impact the education, medical and sporting quality in India. His tireless efforts has seen him substantially elevate all 3 in his lifetime.

”We started our education journey close to four decades ago in the 1980s with the idea of making good education accessible for our youth. Throughout the course of this long and rewarding journey, our endeavour has been to build a diverse yet welcoming community that can be instrumental in shaping the future of our country. As the world grows smaller and more connected, we’re beginning to live and work with people who don’t look like us, don’t think like us, don’t come from the same place as us, and don’t share the same values and principles as us. In this world’s converging into one large community, lies the biggest opportunity for the current generation. The opportunity to come together, exchange perspectives and collectively solve problems and do good for the entire human race.”

Message from our Dean of School of Medicine, Ambi - Dr. Surekha Shirish Patil

It is both an honor and a privilege to welcome you to our vibrant campus. Medicine is a dynamic and noble calling—one that demands a lifelong commitment to learning, ethical practice, scientific excellence, and, above all, compassionate patient care. Our institution is built on the vision of nurturing not only highly skilled doctors but also empathetic healers, innovators, and leaders who will shape the future of healthcare globally.

Throughout my clinical and academic journey—including my tenure as Professor of Anesthesiology and Dean at Padmashree Dr. D.Y. Patil University, Navi Mumbai—I have witnessed the remarkable transformation of medical education. My work in clinical research, pain management, critical care, and academic leadership has reinforced my belief that world-class medical education extends far beyond textbooks and classrooms. It requires experiential learning, simulation-based training, evidence-based practice, research orientation, and a thorough understanding of the ethical and medico-legal responsibilities of the medical profession.

At the Ambi campus, we are committed to creating an ecosystem that fosters innovation, inquiry, and excellence. As healthcare enters the era of digital transformation, we are embracing Artificial Intelligence (AI), data-driven healthcare, and technology-enhanced learning as integral components of medical education. Our students will be encouraged to understand and responsibly utilize emerging technologies that are revolutionizing diagnosis, treatment, research, and patient care.

Equally important is our focus on Positive Psychology, mental well-being, and resilience. We recognize that healthcare professionals work in demanding environments that require emotional strength, adaptability, and compassion. Through a culture that promotes mindfulness, emotional intelligence, optimism, and professional well-being, we strive to develop doctors who are not only clinically competent but also psychologically resilient and socially responsible.

As a dedicated teacher and advocate for academic excellence, my goal is to ensure that every student receives the mentorship, research opportunities, clinical exposure, and personal guidance necessary to realize their full potential. I encourage you to embrace every opportunity to learn, question, innovate, collaborate, and grow.

Together, let us push the boundaries of medical science, harness the power of technology responsibly, and uphold the timeless values of humanity and service. I am confident that your journey at our institution will be transformative, empowering you to become confident, ethical, compassionate, and future-ready medical professionals.
