A Community That Grows Together

Bringing doctors, students, and medical professionals together to learn, support, and grow as a unified medical community.

Our Story

In 2019, a group of proud alumni of Madras Medical College came together to establish the “Madras Red Fort Doctors Foundation”—a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting our College, its students, and charitable healthcare initiatives.

Our Legacy

Madras Medical College is one of the oldest and most respected medical schools in India. What began as a private Medical Hall run by Dr. Mortimar of the East India Company was formalized as a medical school in 1835 by Sir Frederick Adam, then British Governor. Since then, thousands of distinguished doctors have either graduated or did their post graduation from our college, many of whom now serve at prestigious institutions across the globe. We take immense pride in their contributions to medicine and society.

Our Inspiration

Most of our alumni began their medical journey at the historic “Red Fort”, where anatomy was taught. This iconic building holds a special place in our hearts and inspired the name of our Foundation. Officially registered on 23rd October 2019, the Foundation raises funds to support charitable activities, our College, its graduates and post graduates, and medical students across India.

Our Mission

It is a privilege to have studied or done your postgraduation at one of India’s premier medical schools, which has produced world-class experts in diverse fields of medicine. With this heritage, we believe it is our responsibility to mentor and guide not only students of Madras Medical College but also medical students across India. By joining our group, students can interact with senior graduates, gain valuable insights, and benefit from the vast knowledge and experience of our alumni community.

Our Objectives
