Introduction : 

Santokba Durlabhji Memorial Hospital cum Medical Research Institute, Jaipur is the most modern hospital of its kind in the state of Rajasthan. It offers outstanding medical facilities as well as medical expertise to all who knock its doors. SDMH is proud to have contributed several innovations to the field of medicine.

Objective :

 “Service to suffering humanity” has remained our guideline ever since it came into being. Our philosophy has always been the provision of the “finest medicare at the most affordable rates”. No patient has ever been turned away because he was too poor to pay.

Foundation Stone : 

SDMH was formally inaugurated by the then Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi on Nov. 28, 1971. Although its history would date back to 1963 when the 1st step in the field of medicine was taken and the Santokba Durlabhji Diagnostic Clinic was founded opposite S.M.S. Hospital.
The main objective was to meet the growing demand for better and cheaper diagnostic facilities at “no profit no loss basis”. It was equipped with the latest X-ray & ECG machines and a well-provisioned laboratory for bacteriological and pathological tests.
Encouraged by the tremendous success of the diagnostic clinic, the trust opened the Santokba durlabhji Maternity and Nursing Home in 1969 where basic facilities in the disciplines of medicine, surgery, pediatrics and gynecology were available.
Thousands of patients were served before the S.D. Maternity & Nursing home matured in 1972 to the gargantuan SDMH.
