The Urology Unit was accredited as a separate unit in the Department of Surgery in 1981 and it was elevated to an independent department in 1998 with Prof KM Singh as its first Head of Department. Prof D. Dalela became Head in July 2003 and relinquished his charge in Sept. 2008 as he opted for contractual appointment as Professor and Prof. S.N. Sankhwar took over as Head after that.
Presently a team of 6 faculty members, one supporting consultant, eighteen residents, one research officer and nearly 120 paramedical and ministerial staff personals are managing day to day affairs of the department.
