Members of the teaching staff are highly qualified and dedicated who are ever willing to serve the institution. Since the hospital is located in a prime location and with an attached Medical College (Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences) the patient inflow is very high. Dental health services are also rendered at the rural centers through the Community Department with a fully equipped mobile dental unit.
