The opening ceremony was a grand affair. The first class of students was inducted on 1st June, 1959. In 1963, the amalgamation of BMSI and all units of JCH led to the creation of JPMC with the combined administration headed by a Director. JPMC, thus established, comprised of a cluster of buildings spread over 148 acres. The prime purpose of this institution, in addition to treating patients, became higher medical education, training and research. Thereafter, with the passage of time, more buildings were constructed to cater to the growing needs of various evolving specialties. It can now proudly claim to be the biggest and the best equipped public sector hospital in Pakistan, employing highly qualified staff in numerous specialties, ready to render quality health care services to the ailing. In the process, JPMC also imparts high quality training to medical graduates, nurses and technicians and undertakes meaningful research in clinical and basic medical sciences.  1952, Dow Medical College (DMC) was attached with JCH. In August 1954 the National Assembly of Pakistan authorized the Basic Medical Sciences Institute (BMSI), as basic sciences education was deemed crucial to establishing a centre for higher medical education. After its initial establishment at DMC, Karachi, the Government of Pakistan changed the site for the development of BMSI to a building situated at the site of JCH. The Indiana University with its staff embarked on the establishment of BMSI, headed by Dr. Paul A. Nicoll, Prof.of Physiology who deserves major credit for accomplishment of this assignment. He was ably assisted by Dr. Osgood D Priddle, Prof.of Pharmacology and Dr. Rolla N. Harger, Prof.of Biochemistry. The BMSI with six departments and laboratories, including Anatomy, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Pathology, Pharmacology and Physiology, was thus established as the most updated medical institution of its time. The official opening ceremony was held on 11th April, 1959. Speakers on this occasion were the President of Pakistan, General Muhammad Ayub Khan, President of Indiana University, Dr. Harman B. Wells and Director General Health, Col. M. Jaffer. After the creation of Pakistan in 1947, the father of the nation, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah was requested to grant approval to lend his name to the hospital, which he graciously accorded, with the condition that it be opened for the public. Thus the Medical Corps Hospital/British General Hospital was named as Jinnah Central Hospital (JCH).
Being the capital city of Pakistan at that time, Karachi became home to thousands of Federal Government employees, who settled here along with their families. The Government of Pakistan decided to establish JCH as a well equipped hospital to cater for their medical needs, as the existing Civil Hospital was inadequate for this purpose. The journey of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) started in 1930 in Medical Corps Hospital, meant for medical aid to military personnel exclusively. In 1942 it was re-named as the British General Hospital and remained as such till 1947; a 100 bedded hospital with all basic necessary facilities

Although Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center (JPMC) is a public sector hospital I was pleasantly surprised to see it clean and well organized with guards guiding you to where you want to go. The roads (it's a huge complex) were well maintained, abundant greenery and well marked pavements. The buildings had clearly visible markings which made navigation easy. The staff was friendly and courteous. Very satisfying experience while having my COVID-19 Booster shot.

This hospital is near my university but it's also comes in SMC (JSMU) doctors
I recommend you that this hospital is good with poor faculty staff but here all treatments are free with no management system and discipline

محمد حسن حکومت کا اقدام ہے اور کراچی والوں کے لئے بہت بڑی سہولت ہے بہت ہی عمدہ طریقے سے مریضوں کو دیکھا جاتا ہے البتہ مریضوں کی تعداد زیادہ ہونے کی وجہ سے ہسپتال کی جگہ کم پڑ جاتی ہے اس لیے اس کے متبادل اسپتالوں کی بھی اشد ضرورت ہے اس کے بارے میں سوچا جانا چاہیے تاکہ عوام کو سہولت مل سکے دیگر صوبوں کی بنسبت جناح ہسپتال ایک ایسا ہسپتال ہے جس سے عام غریب آدمی باسہولت مہنگے ترین علاج عزت کے ساتھ کروا سکتا ہے جو بنیادی مسئلہ یہاں پر ہے وہ یہ ہے کہ جگہ ہے مریض بہت زیادہ ہوتے ہیں سہولیات فراہم کی جا رہی ہیں وہ عام آدمی کی پہنچ سے بہت زیادہ دور ہوتی ہیں اس لیے ہر انسان کی کوشش یہی ہوتی ہے کہ وہ یہاں سے اپنا علاج جو کہ بالکل مفت ہے

A large public hospital equipped with modern equipment. But the state of cleanliness needs to be addressed, and the administration must take concrete steps to end the mismanagement of the hospital. The attention of government officials is very important.
