Intake:
MBBS: 50
It is attached to the Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Hospital, which is run by the Thane Municipal Corporation.
It offers the MBBS course, which has a 4½ + 1 year duration. The institute has 60 seats for MBBS which is the lowest in the state and offers more personal attention to each aspiring doctor. The CSMH hospital is equipped with over 500 beds, and a host of speciality departments. The college does offer PG courses but only CPS diploma courses as of now.
The hospital has a huge patient population mainly from the poor areas of Kalwa, Thane, Diva and Mumbra.
Its main fest is known as Abhiyaan which is slowly but surely improving its standard since it was started some twelve years ago. Even though it is a rather small and relatively unheard of college especially compared to colleges like KEM, JJ or LTMMMC, the students' enthusiasm is bringing it at par with other popular college fests. For example, RGMC conducts Medi-Exhibit which is the medical symposium and has been a frontrunner in this trend at least as far as medical colleges of Mumbai are concerned.
Hostel facilities are available for both boys and girls
