Vice-Chancellor’s Message

I, on behalf of all the faculty, staff and students, welcome you to Patan Academy of Health Sciences, an Academy where technology blends with humanity to produce best of professionals to serve the population with empathy, compassion and dedication.

PAHS is an Academy established on the robust foundation of an institution with a history going back to 1956 AD (2013 BS) when it started as Shanta Bhawan Hospital and later in 1982 AD (2039 BS) amalgamated with Lalitpur District Hospital to form the present day Patan Hospital. In 2008 AD (23 Magh 2064 BS) it further evolved into Patan Academy of Health Sciences (PAHS), with Patan Hospital being the Teaching Hospital, where it continues to provide low cost high quality service.

We take pride in the innovative approaches that we have taken in health professional education in all the three schools (School of Medicine, School of Nursing & Midwifery, and School of Public Health) like Problem Based Learning (PBL), Clinical Presentation (CP) curriculum, Medical Humanities, Community Based Learning and Education (CBLE), Competency Based Education, etc. to produce not only technically competent but also compassionate health professional with capacity to lead for the country.

We are open to partnership/collaboration with internal and international institutions, in terms of academics, services and research, with the principles of ‘growing together’.

We are here to serve the nation and its people and feel honored to do so. We thank you for your trust in us.
