From the Buriganga to the Thames — our journey continues.
From the Buriganga to the Thames — our journey continues.

Founded in the heart of Old Dhaka, Sir Salimullah Medical College is one of Bangladesh’s oldest and most distinguished centres of medical education. Generations of doctors, dentists, academics and researchers have passed through its halls, carrying the SSMC name across Bangladesh and around the world.

Our story is inseparable from the historic Mitford Hospital, established on the banks of the Buriganga in 1858. From the beginnings of organised medical education in Dhaka to today’s modern medical and dental training, SSMC and Mitford share a remarkable legacy of learning, service and patient care.
