After the successful launch of Lokmanya Medical Foundation in 1975 the need to give medical education to the students of PCMC area was felt by Dr. V. G. Vaidya and Dr. S. A. Katekari. In 1983 one Homoeopathic OPD was started in the premises of Lokmanya Hospital, Chinchwad. This OPD got good response from the people in general from in and around Pimpri-Chinchwad area. Considering this best response it was thought of starting a Homoeopathic Medical College, which will impart scientific knowledge about Homoeopathy to the students allover Maharashtra. With lot of efforts of Dr.V.G.Vaidya, Dr.S.A.Katewkari and Dr.Hussainy on 18th September 1984 the dream came true when LMF Homoeopathic Medical College was started.

In very short duration the college became popular amongst the students community because of best clinical material available in Lokmanya Hospital & College.
