Microbiology

The department of Microbiology at Dayanand Medical College and Hospital has come a long way since its inception in the year 1972 with main objective and focus to guide and impart innovative education along with diagnostic facility at par with international standards. During its infancy the department was headed by stalwarts like Dr (Mrs) H Prabhakar, Dr WC Deb and Dr HL Chopra. In 1983, Dr.(Mrs) Swaran Khurana took over the reins of the department and it was under her stewardship that the department got its Postgraduate status. The department further progressed (1998-2020) under the guidance of Dr Shobha Ram to Dr Urmil Mohan Dr Raj Kumar and Dr Deepinder Chhina.

Dr Veenu Gupta took over the charge in December 2020. The department is gaining new heights under her able leadership.
