Dr. P P Mohammed Musthafa a renowned Cardiologist in Malabar region is the Founder of Metromed International Cardiac Centre, the first and largest exclusive cardiac speciality hospital with 200 beds entirely dedicated for heart care Accredited by NABH and certified by ISO 9001 – 2015, first of its kind in Kerala. MICC is equipped with 5 operation suites, 2 Catheterization Lab with electrophysiology, IVUS, FFR and OCT facilities and 4 intensive care units. After completing his super speciality DM Cardiology in 2002 from Madras Medical College he worked at Madras Medical Mission and K M Cherian Heart Foundation in Chennai as a consultant Cardiologist. He gained training in various newer techniques in interventional cardiology from renowned heart centers from India and abroad. During this period, centres to practice interventional cardiology were limited in Kerala. Efficient Cardiac doctors from Kerala had to serve outside as the infrastructure was limited in our state. Keralites had to depend on hospitals in the neighbouring states for heart disease treatment. It was Dr. Musthafa’s vision to start a unique cardiac speciality hospital in Kerala which should be at par with any other heart hospital in the world so that any treatment available for heart diseases anywhere in the world should be made available in Kerala. It was the need of the hour that Kerala should have a highly focused centre for the treatment of heart disease, as the incidence of cardiac ailment were on the rise, and now India is becoming the headquarters for heart disease in the world and kerala’s incidence is above the national average. This vision was fulfilled when MICC, kerala’s largest and exclusive heart centre was inaugurated at Calicut in November 2012. Since then MICC has come a long way in the field of cardiac care. Centre has all the departments of cardiology under one roof. In a short period, MICC’s performance has raised to such a level that it became one of the most preferred centres for cardiac care in the state. Dr. Musthafa played a major role in developing his Cardiac Centre into par excellence. Now MICC is the largest Cardiac speciality Centre in Kerala performing highest number of complex cardiac procedures in the state. Many works done at MICC are accepted in the top rated Cardiology Conferences in Europe and US. He got opportunities for numerous case presentations in India and abroad. These opportunities have gone a long way in refining his skills. His credentials extend much beyond the numerous awards and achievements that has spanned in his academic and professional career. He has got more than 20 years of experience in interventional cardiology. As a cardiologist he has an experience of performing more than 20000 cardiac cath procedures. After establishing MICC as a pioneer centre in cardiac care it was his dream to set up multiple peripheral cardiac centers with cathlab facility in remote places of Kerala where primary invasive cardiac treatment can be made available to rural population. Under his leadership MICC further expanded and started 9 more peripheral centres across the state to become the largest cardiac group in Kerala.
