MEET THE HEALTHCARE DIVISION

Headquartered in Pathanamthitta, Kerala, the Muthoot Healthcare division is nestled between lush mountains and flowing valleys in the heart of Central Travancore. The Division is among the busiest multi-speciality healthcare providers in Kerala, with more than 1500+ medical and paramedical staff, bustling to provide qualitative treatment for patients. Through their compassionate medical care, MGM Muthoot Hospitals has been able to touch 6,000,000+ lives so far.

“Our focus is on providing the best but affordable treatments to the common man and introducing them to all advanced medical facilities. We are committed to serving the community with a spirit of equality while providing treatments seamlessly to all without discrimination and striving to become a torchbearer of care, safety and integrity”, says Dr. Georgie Kurien Muthoot - Medical & Managing Director of Muthoot Healthcare.

 

HISTORY AND LEGACY

“The Muthoot Healthcare Division was founded envisaging the healthcare requirements of the common man deprived of essential, quality treatments due to financial constraints", says M. George Muthoot, Founder of the Muthoot Group. The Muthoot Group, which has a family legacy of 800 years in business, was founded in 1887 by the Late Shri. Ninan Mathai Muthoot, as a modest trading business in the remote village of Kozhencherry in Kerala.

To give back to a community devoid of basic healthcare services, the Muthoot Medical Centre Kozhencherry was founded in 1988 by the Late. Dr. George Kurien Muthoot, MRCP, who served as its Founder Medical Director. His vision and contributions in improving the rural communities access to high-quality healthcare set the benchmark and are reflected in the outstanding international reputation Muthoot Healthcare has amassed thus far. That vision has today grown into two multispecialty hospitals, state of a art cancer centre, diagnostic centres, and an education unit with colleges and schools of nursing and allied health sciences and management colleges.
