Basaveshwar Hospital
Looking at the inadequate facilities for specialist medical care for a large segment of population, the Society undertook the establishment of a fully-equipped modern hospital. The foundation stone of Basaveshwar Hospital, was laid by Sri R. Venkataraman, the then Vice-President of India in 1984. The first-phase of the hospital, was inaugurated in June 1989, by Late Sri Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime Minister of the Country. It was the Silver-Jubilee gift of the Society to M.R. Medical College. The second-phase was completed in next 5 years. It offers modern diagnostic and specialist care for the patients. In addition it offered additional teaching facilities to the students of M.R. Medical College. The Society has spent RS. 9,00,00,000 on the main building of the Hospital. The hospital had the CT scanner as early as 1991. The Society added Sangameshwar Hospital with a well-equipped Neonatology unit in 1993.

The last year Government General Hospital was the main teaching hospital to M.R. Medical College. Basaveshwar Hospital and Sangameshwar Hospitals were offering additional teaching facilities.The decision of the Medical Council of India necessitated the establishment of own teaching hospital by the Medical College. The Society began developing additional teaching facilities in Basaveshwar Hospital and the hospital has been upgraded to 765 beds. Additional construction of the out-patient block, and separate intensive care unit, laboratory and auditorium at a cost of RS. 3,00,00,000 have been undertaken and are under various stages of completion.
