English was chosen as the language of instruction mainly forutilisation of the immense wealth of printed work andillustrations in the Western medical literature.On the recommendation of the Committee, a Government Order No. 28 of 28th January 1835, Medical College of Bengal was established. This day is still celebrated as the Foundation day of the Calcutta Medical College. A small hospital consisting of 20 beds was established on 1st April 1838. In 1840 a large Hospital for women was founded with 100 beds to afford instruction in Midwifery. Assistant Surgeon M.J. Bramley (see image) was appointed as Superintendent with Assistant Surgeon Dr. H. H. Goodeve (see image) as his only assistant. Pandit Madhusudan Gupta, a Baidya Professor of the Native Medical Institute was transferred with two assistants from the Sanskrit College to the New Medical College. The period of study was for four years and the examination was conducted under the supervision of the Committee of the Council of Education. The certificate qualified them to practice Surgery and Medicine. The illustrious band of teachers started their work on 20th February 1835. The designation of the Superintendent Dr. M.J. Bramley was changed to that of Principal and his assistant Dr. H.H.Goodeve to Professor of Medicine and Anatomy on 5th August 1835. William B O’Shaughnessy was appointed as the Professor of Chemistry and Materia Medica. There was no library, museum, apparatus or hospital to start with. A few books and apparatus were transferred from the abolished Native Medical Institution to the Medical College. Deep-rooted national prejudice was the great hurdle to the study of Anatomy or dissection. Professor Goodeve started demonstration of the parts of human body using sheep’s brain, goat’s liver and human skeletons. Two skeletons were purchased through Messrs. Bathgate & Company of Calcutta and other anatomical preparations were imported from England . Mr. Evans was appointed as the Curator of the Museum. On 10th January 1836 Pandit Madhusudan Gupta, accompanied by four young students followed Professor Goodeve to an outhouse of the Medical College building and began to dissect a dead body with his own hands. This day will ever be marked in the Annals of Western Medicine in India when Indians rose superior to all prejudice and boldly flung open the gates of modern scientific medicine to fellow countrymen. In less than 2 years time there was rapid advancement in the art of dissection. In 1848, Professor Goodeve remarked in his introductory lecture that his pupils have dissected more than 500 bodies. Principal Bramley died on 19th January 1837. The teaching suffered due to paucity of staff and lack of a College hospital. The Government considered revision of staff and a College Council was formed with Mr. David Hare, the respected Philanthropist as the Secretary and Treasurer, for the regulation of the affairs of the College. Other members of the College Council were: 1. Dr. Henry Goodive, Professor of Anatomy and Medicine. 2. Dr. W.B. Shaughnessy, Professor of Chemistry and Materia Medica. 3. Dr. C.C. Egerton, Professor of Surgery and Clinical Surgery. 4. Dr. J. McCosh, Professor of Clinical Medicine 5. Dr. N. Wallich, Professor of Botany 6. Dr. R. Shaughnessy, Demonstrator of Anatomy and Chemistry. On 1st April 1838, due to the liberality of Lord Auckland, a ward of 20 beds was opened as the nucleus of the first Medical College Hospital, from the money saved by abolition of the post of lecturership of Clinical Medicine on resignation of Dr. McCosh. An out-patient department was also attached to this hospital in 1839. 70 patients, both European and Indian, were treated in the in-patient and 200 patients attended the outdoor dispensary daily in 1839. The success of this small hospital induced the Government to construct a hospital on a much larger scale at later date. The construction of large female hospital for teaching in Midwifery was also contemplated. The first examination of the New Medical College was held on the 30th October, 1838, after three and a half years' study of Anatomy, Physiology, Chemistry, Natural Philosophy, Materia Medica, Botany, Physics, Medicine and Surgery with the exception of Midwifery, as there was no provision for the teaching of the subject. Examination was conducted by: 1. Dr. Nicholson, Surgeon General 2. Dr. Grant, Surgeon Apothecary to the East India Company 3. Dr. J. Martin, Presidency Surgeon and Surgeon.
