191. L.T.M. Municipal Medical College and General Hospital — Paediatrics, ENT and Ophthalmology — Maharashtra, Sion, Mumbai

Reasons: A Paediatrics professor is accused of verbally abusing and threatening patients, attendants, residents, interns and MBBS students. The ENT and Ophthalmology HODs are also described as toxic towards students and residents. The submission alleges that the 2021 batch was repeatedly made to attend internal assessments and compulsory lectures despite being in the final year, due to attendance-related issues. The entry is incomplete.

Additional details: Other departments are described as less toxic, but workload is high and teaching is reportedly poor, especially for UG students.

192. Dr. RPGMC Tanda — PSM — Himachal Pradesh, Kangra

Reasons: The submission continues the previous entry’s account about the college VP being considered for Dean. It also mentions the Biochemistry HOD, who is Dean (Academics), as unsupportive and alleges that students are failed without reason and made to feel unintelligent. The Paediatrics HOD is described as rude and accused of specifically failing students who do not listen to him.

193. SDDCH Parbhani — Pedodontics, Public Health Dentistry, Endodontics and Conservative Dentistry — Maharashtra, Parbhani

Reasons: Public Health Dentistry HOD is accused of taking excessive interest in students’ personal lives and making comments about them. Endodontics and Conservative Dentistry are described as having excessive workloads involving fake OPDs and registers. The source also mentions students who do not listen to a particular faculty member, but the department attribution is unclear.

Additional details: The management and senior HODs are described as money-minded and selfish.

194. BVDU Sangli — Paediatrics — Maharashtra, Sangli

Reasons: Excessive work for interns and daily scolding.

Additional details: All other departments are described as manageable.

Additional details: The respondent advises avoiding the Orthopaedics department.

196. UCMS — Orthopaedics — Delhi, Delhi

Reasons: The source continues the previous entry’s statement about failing 15–20 MBBS students in every batch. It alleges that PGs are overburdened, learn little beyond insurance paperwork and face a smoking culture with seniors.

197. Goa Medical College — Orthopaedics — Goa, Goa

Reasons: Extremely hectic workload, with alternate-day duties for 2–2.5 years, described as 36 hours on and 12 hours off, continuous OT work, ward management and daily consultant rounds. The last six months of third year are described as more manageable. Academics are reportedly improving but are mainly handled by JR2s and JR3s. Very few leaves are granted; the respondent reports taking only 15 leaves in three years. The HOD can be difficult at times.

Additional details: The submission attributes the lack of leave to severe staff shortage, with only three residents admitted per year. Seniors and consultants are described as generally decent and approachable, though workload and consultant behaviour make the experience exhausting. It also mentions good surgical exposure and learning opportunities.

198. Datta Meghe Medical College, Nagpur — Whole administration — Maharashtra, Nagpur

Reasons: Most seniors are described as okay, but workload is excessive. Attendance rules are reportedly so strict that students attend even when ill, including with typhoid. Leaves are not granted, and students are expected to publish research papers every year starting from first year.

Additional details: The source ends with the phrase “independent as a surgeon and otherwise.”

199. Parul Medical Sciences and Research, Vadodara — Psychiatry — Gujarat, Vadodara

Reasons: Constant fear of being failed in PG examinations from first year. The respondent reports being called “fu#ker” by an assistant professor; the sentence is incomplete.

Additional details: Very toxic.

Original responses: 201–250

201. Thanjavur Medical College — OG — Tamil Nadu, Thanjavur

Reasons: middle of the labour ward for accidentally missing out on checking up a patient. Overworked. Needlessly scolded. Undermanned.

202. Government Medical College, Kota — Physiology department of first year — Rajasthan, Kota

Reasons: Based on caste, students are detained. Ortho is very toxic with mental and…

203. Travancore Medical College — Ortho and Surgery — Kerala, Kollam

Reasons: Physical harassment and limited hands on. Surgery is also toxic and hands on is extremely less — PGs hardly get any experience and even 3rd year PGs are not confident enough to do basic…

Additional details: Please don’t take any surgical departments in this college. Gen Medicine, Anaesthesia, Emergency Medicine, Paediatrics are the only departments comparatively worth taking here.

204. Guwahati Medical College — Orthopedics — Assam, Guwahati

Reasons: Procedures. Physical torture, mental harassment. More than 60–70 hours continuous work without sleep, bath and even basic hygiene like…

Additional details: Each year at least one leaves the department.

205. VMMC and SJH — General Surgery — Delhi, New Delhi

Reasons: Brushing teeth. Seniors treat first years like peons, asking them to bring money from ATM and food from mess. Shaming, abuses, humiliation, caste-based partiality by seniors. Consultants are always with toxic SRs and JRs continue to suffer. If you complain against an SR, consultants make you suffer like hell. If you take a stand against caste or gender-based discrimination…

Additional details: SRs leave all work to JRs and sit and play games even on emergency duty. SRs and consultants treat you badly. Every pressure is on first year. Second year enjoys parties and third year prepares for exams.

206. NIMS — Medicine — Rajasthan, Jaipur

Reasons: Your hands-on is stopped. If RGHS scheme or Bhamashah patients run away from hospital, the resident doctor on duty has to pay their hospital bills. Money-minded hospital, no teaching, no real patients, just camp patients who are kept in hospital because of various government schemes.

207. CMC Vellore — Obs and Gynae, Surgery — Tamil Nadu, Vellore

Reasons: Senior PGs don’t allow interns to have even one meal on some days, body-shaming, verbal abuse, shouting for reporting a patient with high BP. The professor reportedly wasn’t concerned about the patient’s high BP in the labour room and instead wanted the intern to follow hierarchy of reporting, using words like, “How dare you talk before me?” Having to beg for even two or three hours of sleep or basic things like taking a bath and…

Additional details: No.

208. Maharaja Agrasen Medical College — Anaesthesia — Haryana, Hisar

Reasons: Brushing teeth, humiliation in front of patients during rounds. Aren’t allowed to sit in OT. Stand all day!

Additional details: Heavy toxic department.

209. Agroha GMC, Haldwani — Respiratory Medicine — Uttarakhand, Rishikesh

Reasons: HOD is very toxic and makes work hard without breaks. The female APs and professor are described as prejudiced and cruel towards male PGs.

210. Apollo Vanagaram — Radiology — Tamil Nadu, Chennai

Reasons: They are misandrists. Completely outrage your modesty as a man. You shouldn’t have any self-respect as a man if you study here. The Elephant doesn’t do any work but criticises and curses you based on your dietary habits too, leaving no personal time.

211. VIMS — Every department — Maharashtra, Palghar

Reasons: Always badmouthing me to others and slandering me to my face. Management is a little toxic.

Additional details: Nothing.

212. Goa Medical College — Hospital in general — Goa, Panaji

Reasons: Everything runs on the Health Minister’s whim. The recent video and outburst is the tip of the iceberg. Babu culture. Small state, so everyone knows someone. Any random guy can come harass PGs without any consequences. Also can fail PGs just out of revenge.

213. BJGMC Pune — Microbiology — Maharashtra, Pune

Reasons: Absolute discrimination against non-Maharashtrians. Faculty is absent, leaving everything on residents. Technicians and class-four staff also do nothing, and residents are responsible for everything and anything that goes wrong. Faculty working in private labs and hospitals all…

Additional details: Senior resident posts were not declared for two consecutive years for bond residents of those batches who were non-Maharashtrian.

214. KMC Manipal — Surgery, Ortho — Karnataka, Manipal

Reasons: Across the city. Not toxic, very good academics but negligible hands-on.

Additional details: Chill life, good academics, poor hands-on.

215. AIIMS Jodhpur — Community Medicine — Rajasthan, Jodhpur

Reasons: Faculties are good but the HOD is very toxic. She makes life hell for those whom she does not like. She micromanages, lots of gaslighting. Tore leave application after signing it just because I was going for a wedding of a student she hated. Most of the JRs have been in depression for 3 years of their PG life there. She calls SRs, gives them favours in terms of unsanctioned leaves in exchange for gossip/personal details about JRs and then uses it to indirectly demean and condescend the students. She does not spare faculties as well. So many things but can’t cover it in this space. My personal experience taught me the best way to deal with such people is to get prepared how to handle toxicity, but because they have the power to fail (and she did, twice to same student), students actually have to comply with her.

Additional details: Department faculties are very supportive except the HOD. But eventually she is in charge, so no faculty takes a stand for JRs knowing very well what the student is going through.

216. Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi — General Medicine, Emergency Medicine — Kerala, Kochi

Reasons: For General Medicine, the faculty are very toxic and the PGs continue this cycle. Makes you do scut work, work triple duties at a stretch, constant harassment. Every Medicine PG I knew considered dropping out and trying again for NEET. If you complain to faculty, you are immediately blacklisted. The PGs are ruthless. I was very efficient at my work and would be done with everything by 10–10:30 pm. I had to sit and dictate for my PG to help him complete because of his incompetence and my hostel closed and I had to spend the night in the duty room and didn’t have time to go to hostel, freshen up the next day. So it was like I was doing duty even on non-duty days. Faculty kept yelling at me for the smallest things, like in OPD, if I didn’t sit in the right posture or if I pushed the chair closer to the computer, my faculty member would completely explode and threaten me with extension just because I adjusted my seat. It’s like when you enter the department, you have to learn about the particular faculty’s petty needs and not about actual medical knowledge. Absolutely vile department and no matter how desperate I will never take Gen Med in Amrita. Emergency department: cameras are…

Additional details: College in general for PG is quite toxic. Specific departments like Dermatology, Radiology, Paediatrics, Anaesthesia have good camaraderie amongst themselves and cultivate a good learning environment. Nonetheless, you will still experience hardships because the college encourages a bootlicking, subservient doctor who respects management. Compared to a lot of colleges in Kerala, this can be very difficult for certain people. Since I did UG there, I was aware of how to behave with a lot of them because my seniors warned me. PGs might not have that luxury because they immediately enter a dog-eat-dog world there. However, it should be noted that for UG, faculty are very kind and helpful. They treat us like friends, help us catch up on topics with individual mentoring, cultivate a sense of critical thinking. During internship, we had access and permission to learn every single procedure and all faculty encourage that, especially Anaesthesia, ED and Surgery. Ragging is very mild. As simple as singing songs and dancing, and then next thing you know your seniors and you are laughing and having a very good time. Academic culture is very strict, which is excellent, with a lot of attention paid to standard textbooks and research. Top of…

217. Haldia Institute of Dental Sciences and Research — Orthodontics — West Bengal, Haldia

Reasons: They are too much toxic. They just harass the students and never approve their work. Personal agendas are being fulfilled by the teacher, especially one faculty member.

218. Government Doon Medical College — Orthopedics / Obs and Gynae — Uttarakhand, Dehradun

Reasons: Verbal abuse, physical abuse, 24×7 duties (Ortho), long working hours. No valuation of your hard work. They ask for a fine of ₹5,000 if monthly you…

219. D.Y. Patil Navi Mumbai — Pediatric Dentistry — Maharashtra, Navi Mumbai

Reasons: Haven’t earned enough. They ask for money if your quota isn’t done for the month. They also ask for fines for forgetting to write that you have a seminar scheduled on the board. They don’t have sisters to work, so the materials are…

220. VMKV Salem Jawaharlal — Surgery, Ortho — Tamil Nadu, Salem

Reasons: Supposed to be taken by PGs, and if anything goes wrong, fined again. 75 percent fake cases. Clashes between professors, HOD is toxic. Non-teaching staff have more…

221. Nehru Medical College, Aligarh Muslim University — Pharmacology — Uttar Pradesh, Aligarh

Reasons: Respect than resident doctors, ass-licking culture is there, internal students have more benefit than externals. Discrimination is there on the basis of religion and region (North Indian vs South Indian). No respect for South Indian residents. Non-teaching staff making fun of South Indian residents.

Additional details: Departments like General Surgery, Paediatrics, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics…

222. King George Medical College, Lucknow — Obs Gynae — Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow

Reasons: Extreme workload with even restrictions on eating meals during duty time and no respect for personal life, making a person work at the cost of their health and making them do all sorts of work, be it…

Additional details: No.

223. GMC Rajouri — Community Medicine — Jammu and Kashmir, Rajouri

Reasons: Clerical HOD is a prick, asking sexual favours and gifts from girl students particularly. Residents can be seen crying, even after…

224. ABVIMS — OBG — Delhi, New Delhi

Reasons: Doing our best, often get humiliation from consultants in front of patients during rounds, not allowed to take leaves at any cost. I hope my privacy remains otherwise I…

225. Government Stanley Medical College, Chennai — Ortho — Tamil Nadu, Chennai

Reasons: Will be failed in my exams. One of my senior residents committed suicide due to excess mental pressure in his first year. My first year was living hell and cried every day, unable to share it with family. However, grew resilient and ignored those barking dogs. Now I’m waiting to escape this prison and start my practice away from this…

Additional details: Ragging is their college culture and they claim it “strengthens the bond” between senior and junior.

226. Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital, Pune — General Medicine — Maharashtra, Pune

Reasons: Hellhole. Toxic Acting HOD, toxic management, unnecessary burdening with loads of duty, very low patient load, no academics, deducting stipend for late punches, CCTV recording of residents, don’t allow to eat lunch/breakfast.

227. Santosh — General Medicine — Karnataka, Bangalore

Reasons: “Just plz mention only toxic.. remove the rest. My career can be at stake. So mention just toxic.”

228. Doon Medical College — Medicine — Uttarakhand, Dehradun

Reasons: PGs are toxic, especially males, and some professors. The most toxic department of the college. The second-year PG reportedly makes you…

229. Sikkim Manipal Institute of Medical Sciences — General Surgery — Sikkim, Gangtok

Reasons: Work like a slave. Unnecessarily marks you absent. Verbal abuse is prevalent. No clinical exposure, only ward work. They have a group in their department called “Sexy Surgeons” on which they discuss the women they sleep with. The HOD doesn’t care about what is happening. Too much…

Additional details: The department is notorious for being toxic, uncouth, uncivilised and trashy people. One of the worst experiences of my life.

230. PRM Medical College — OBG — Odisha, Baripada

Reasons: Interference in your personal life. They casually ask who you sleep with. HOD herself is a toxic personality. Threats to fail in the exam in every situation, whether related to personal or academic matters.

Additional details: Put too much pressure, restrictions and rules. Not supportive at all.

231. Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences — Perio — Delhi, Delhi

Reasons: Staff will ask you to go on dates with them for approval of work.

232. MMC&RI — FMT — Karnataka

Reasons: Some seniors use an overly harsh approach, where teaching is replaced with shouting and belittling, making juniors hesitant to ask questions. The leadership often supports these seniors, which makes it unsafe to raise concerns or expect fair handling of issues. Favouritism is very visible — a small circle consistently gets the better cases, procedures and flexibility, while others are sidelined. Opportunities for practical learning are not shared equally.

233. Maharshi Markandeshwar — Paeds — Haryana, Ambala

Reasons: Management is toxic. They will fail you in your MD exam and will demand ₹25 lakhs under the table to pass you, and compulsory SRship after giving bond amount also.

Additional details: Public scolding and humiliation are common, which lowers morale and confidence.

234. KGMU — Ortho surgery (to some extent Medicine) — Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow

Reasons: Surgery: 36-hour and 48-hour shifts are very common, ragging (not physical), egoistic seniors and professors. Orthopedic: Physical abuse; senior may beat you with a belt, may slap you on your face in front of patients. Only allowed to go to hostel once a week, not even for bathing. May force you to drink alcohol. Not allowed to sit the entire day. In both Ortho and Surgery, JR1 pays for breakfast, lunch and dinner for all JRs 2, JR3s and SRs.

Additional details: In Medicine, JR1 attempted suicide in 2024.

235. Goa Medical College — Radiodiagnosis — Goa, Bambolim

Reasons: The department has all the facilities. But there is a horrible culture of hierarchy. The HOD is a really nice person, but the rest of the faculty just want to do a half-assed job, so they keep pushing work on SRs and they act like the dons of the department, treating JRs badly.

Additional details: The hospital’s worst departments are Medicine and OBGY. Blatant discrimination and hostility against All India students by the entire system, outright telling them to leave this place and using slurs like “Ghatis”. The Health Minister’s associates have phone numbers of PG residents and would directly call and threaten them to see their patients ASAP or face consequences.

236. SJPMC Bharatpur — Medicine and PSM — Rajasthan, Bharatpur

Reasons: In Medicine department there are long duty hours and partiality of work with respect to gender. Male interns have to do all night shifts and work.

Additional details: Some have been failed for not entertaining them. Other departments are…

237. Basavatarakam Indo-American Cancer Hospital — Pathology — Telangana, Hyderabad

Reasons: This is a private hospital that offers DNB courses. During DNB Pathology, professors openly lash out at residents. What’s more pathetic is that even the technologists and support staff are rude towards the residents and humiliate them. The fellows and residents are expected to work under poor working conditions with no proper minimum facilities like seating space. Pathology residents have to buy their microscope. Residents are not even allowed to go for coffee breaks. The professors are disrespectful and humiliate residents. Pathology residents residing within the hospital campus are expected to go in the night to prep surgical pathology specimens. There is no proper schedule that distributes workload among residents. This is a…

238. TNMC — Peds — Maharashtra, Mumbai

Reasons: The place exploits residents and fellows as cheap labour without providing minimum facilities. They talk to you like you are their servants. They make you run errands like getting their bag for them, getting their tiffin for them, making you do multiple rounds of the whole campus for their own personal work. They humiliate you in front of everyone. They don’t even give time to eat food and all this is non-clinical work and scut work.

239. Dr. VMGMC Solapur — FMT, Ophthalmology, Surgery, Ortho — Maharashtra, Solapur

Reasons: FMT — physical abuse. Ophthalmology — toxic HOD and negligible hands-on. Surgery — toxic residents, high workload. Ortho — very heavy workload.

Additional details: The HOD is known to make a new girlfriend every single batch to…

240. Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Higher Education and Research — Ophthalmology — Maharashtra, Sawangi, Meghe, Wardha

Reasons: Sexual misconduct.

Additional details: Whom he shall give majority of the cutting. Also, there have been various allegations against him by some other female JRs about him trying to grope them or making unintended sexual advances. He hasn’t been reported to the authorities with the fear that no action will be taken against them.

241. AIIMS Raebareli — Ortho — Uttar Pradesh, Raebareli

Reasons: Physical abuse and constant harassment like shouting and slangs.

Additional details: And we won’t even give some basic cutting for the whole residency. Surgery is one level ahead of Ortho in terms of toxicity.

242. RML Lucknow — Microbiology — Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow

Reasons: Toxic HOD and professors. One student failed because HOD asked him to do something but he refused in first year; HOD held a grudge till final year. Made to do catering work during birthdays by residents. Verbal abuse and use of personal background to torment PGs. Racist comments to outside non-North Indians. Senior from South harassed during presentations just because he doesn’t know Hindi well, even in a non-clinical subject. Staff are put on a pedestal and JRs come after them, so…

Additional details: Horrible department, too toxic.

243. RML Lucknow — Pediatrics — Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow

Reasons: Whenever problems arise, HOD takes the side of the staff and they don’t stand up for their JRs. Already three JRs have left the seat from Paediatrics due to toxicity. Complete management and administration is biased. They allow pooja in between lectures but they don’t let you…

244. Sai Homeopathic Medical College — OBGY, Medicine, Pedia, PSM — Maharashtra, Mumbai

Reasons: Cover your head with dupatta even during lunch. The mess fee and bus fee are compulsory. I remember wasting my one precious year because I paid ₹1.20 course and bus fee on time but failed to pay mess fee, which I never ate. I paid it 15 days late, then the given time. They held my hall ticket and didn’t allow me to sit for the exam, stating 15 days attendance will not be counted and so I am not eligible to sit for the exam. They are very biased and trouble Muslims a lot.

Additional details: Also our principal said no girls will wear palazzos because it made her college look like Pakistan. Utterly bad mentality. Please don’t take admission in BHMS and, if you have to, at least not in this college.

245. Sri Siddhartha Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre — General Surgery, General Medicine, OBG — Karnataka, Bangalore

Reasons: Toxic behaviour by HODs and professors. Extensions in internship. Blackmailing for attendance. Humiliating and shaming in front of everyone.

Additional details: It’s the worst college. The hospital here is a dummy setup in the name of a medical college. Inspections are hampered. Suddenly on the day of inspection there were hundreds of patients and fake staff.

246. Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute — Radio-diagnosis — Karnataka, Bengaluru

Reasons: Inhumane workloads, miserable living and working conditions. Staff actively mocking the concept of mental health. Zero support from staff in any aspect; they only exist to make fun of you. Academics is non-existent. Not worth destroying your mental health over.

247. JIPMER — ENT — Puducherry, Puducherry

Reasons: Students are demotivated constantly. One professor there has favourites; the rest are useless according to him. If his favourites don’t like that person, he will force the other person to resign by pressuring him in other aspects. Sometimes half the batch has resigned. Sad part is the toxicity is still continuing.

248. Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Mullana, Ambala — MBBS — Haryana, Mullana, Ambala

Reasons: The college pretends like it’s a very good college but it has a lot of restrictions. You are forced to wear uniform, lab coat and an ID card. There is a clerk who checks all this. Attendance is by biometric; anyone who doesn’t fulfil these three criteria gets a biometric punch block. Another day or that same machine punch is blocked for a variety of reasons like not giving a test, not attending a specific class, not registering a mobile number, Aadhaar drama. In that college, clerk and security guard have more power than teachers. Weird rules in hostel, can’t use electrical appliances, unnecessary checking always behind children. Nothing productive and creative.

Additional details: Administration is not empathetic towards students. They treat students badly. Once you are suspended you are trapped in a whirlpool for up to 10 days. They don’t care if you work or not; you should be present in the department during checking by the clerks. If you are absent, you are suspended. No parking inside college for students. Constant gundagardi with students. Join at your own risk.

249. Government Mohan Kumaramangalam Medical College — Intern — Tamil Nadu, Salem

Reasons: To do outside hostel all restaurants and food market is of the owner, full monopoly. Mediocre food, mediocre thought, mediocre people. 36 hours duty, timing…

250. Tezpur Medical College — Biochemistry — Assam, Tezpur

Reasons: Zero academics. Even the staff treat us like beggars. When faculties on special occasions organise treats for the department, we’re given leftovers to eat in a dirty room, which we’re forced to eat in view of not offending anyone, which again becomes a huge issue. But I could have lived with the toxicity if I would have learnt something. But no, nothing. Wish I could have left the seat. Please try to work on removing seat…

Additional details: No one likes our department, from fellow PGs to other faculties to the head. We’re the outcasts.
