THE OATH OF EXCELLENCE

In 2022, Keerthi Teja from Andhra Pradesh aced the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (or NEET), securing for himself a seat at the medical college of his choice—the coveted All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi. After nearly a year at the institute, the MBBS student says the reality is even better than what he had expected. “Studying here is not at all stressful,” says Teja, “and the learning and research opportunities are unmatched.” And what’s more, “the cultural diversity among both students and faculty has helped me develop my personality, while the diversity among patients is helping me improve my medical skills”.

As most students and alumni would agree, what distinguishes AIIMS from other medical institutes is the fact that it is constantly evolving. The field of medicine is no longer what it used to be, even just a decade ago. The advances in technology have brought radical changes—from robotic surgery to nanotechnology, from genetics to artificial intelligence-guided procedures. Doctors need to keep themselves abreast of the latest advancements and upskill themselves accordingly. At AIIMS, students are already being prepared for it.
