Regarding St. Joseph’s Hospital

Dharmagiri hospitals trace their history to 1934 when a hospital was built on the top of a hillock in Kothamangalam by Msgr. Joseph C. Panjikaran M.A; PhD; D.D; DCL, the founder of Medical Sisters of St. Joseph with the mission of offering medical assistance to the poor and downtrodden in society.

He christened the hospital “Dharmagiri” (Charity Mount) and he believed that it must emanate the “Compassionate Love of Jesus Christ” to all who come for medical assistance.

St. Joseph’s Hospital at Kothamangalam town is the extension of what was started by Msgr. Joseph C. Panjikaran.

The hospital began as a small dispensary in 1953 and from there, through the years it has risen in stature to a full-fledged more than 300 bedded Multispeciality hospital rendering quality health care to all segments of the society at reasonable cost.

Apart from the different medical, surgical and superspeciality services, there is School of Nursing, College of Nursing (INC recognized) and School of Medical Laboratory Technology. We also have community health initiatives in the form of rural medical aid schemes and periodic free eye camps in different areas of Idukki and Ernakulam District.
