Kerala Medical Council plans to create directory of doctors

Amid the National Medical Commission’s directions to the doctors to register themselves on the National Medical Register (NMR), the State Medical Council in Kerala is reportedly planning to create a directory of modern medicine/ allopathy practitioners mentioning their names, registration numbers, qualifications, and additional qualifications.

KSMC is taking these steps to distinguish between “fake” doctors and qualified doctors practising without registering themselves with the Council of Modern Medicine of the Council.
