Pariyaram Medical College
Academy of Medical Sciences, popularly known as Pariyaram Medical College is one of the biggest Super Speciality Medical Institution & Hospital in India. Pariyaram Medical College was established in March 1993 at Pariyaram in Kannur district, Kerala state, South India. The nucleus for this building complex was the Pariyaram Sanitorium which was inaugurated way back in 1938 or so. The engineer who built the building was Mr. Appadu Vetil Narayana Menon who belonged to Payyannur.
The Institution is situated in an area of 119 acres (48 ha) in a hilly rural area (Pariyaram), 31 km north of Kannur and 10 km south of Payyanur on the National Highway 17. The population in this area lacks specialised medical care facilities. The nearest Medical College, Mangalore, is 125 km to the north. In the beginning, the hospital and colleges started functioning in the buildings owned by the erstwhile tuberculosis sanatorium at Pariyaram.
