Bangalore Baptist Hospital (BBH) was started as an outpatient clinic in a makeshift building, for rural Bangalore, in 1973. Today it is a 340 bed multispecialty mission hospital serving all socio-economic strata of the society and leading the way in quality healthcare in the country. BBH is the first mission hospital in India to be accredited with NABH and NABL. To enable quality healthcare, the hospital conducts many medical, nursing and allied health services educational programs at undergraduate and post-graduate levels. The hospital is governed by Christian Medical College, Vellore, since 1989.
BBH was founded in 1973 by the International Mission Board (IMB), –a part of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). SBC focussed on the value of medical care and had been supporting mission hospitals in 17 countries before taking BBH under its wings. The cornerstone was laid by Dr. Wikman and his wife Barbara who came to Bangalore to setup the hospital; Dr. Wikman was BBH’s first surgeon. They also initiated medical services from the first mission station that was setup by SBC at Sankey Road; this was later moved to BBH’s current location.
Our mission and promise of service to the community were carried forward by Dr. Jasper McPhail from Mississippi, USA. With a desire to further serve the people in India Dr. McPhail sought the permission of then President of India, Dr. S. Radhakrishna as well as that of Dr. Sushila Nair, then Central Health Minister, to set up the hospital. His request was granted and BBH was setup as a trust on 15 January, 1973. The initiative was strongly supported by the State Government of Karnataka and was inaugurated by then Chief Minister, D. Devaraj Urs.
