The department started functioning with the commencement of academic activity in the year 2012. Achievement of honours in Physiology in first professional MBBS examination by -eight-- MBBS students from pioneer batch brought glory to the new born department. The Physiology department is equipped with haematology, clinical and experimental physiology laboratories along with a research laboratory and  yoga room.
