The establishment of the Berry White School of Medicine in Assam, Dibrugarh marked the beginning of medical education in North East India. Doctor John Berry White was a great philanthropist who donated his entire life’s savings of Rs 50,000 to an organization that produced LMP (Licensed Medical Practitioner) doctors until India attained independence. After India’s independence, when there was a need for a full-fledged medical college in Assam, public meetings were held as well as a civic group was formed to build a medical college in Dibrugarh.
