Established in 1871 as Ahmedabad Medical School, the institute has been a cornerstone of medical education since its inception. Initially affiliated with Civil Hospital, Ahmedabad, it began with just 14 students training as hospital assistants.

In 1879, a generous donation of Rs. 20,000 by Sir Byramjee Jeejeebhoy led to the school being renamed B. J. Medical School. The institution steadily expanded, securing affiliation with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Bombay in 1917 and later with Bombay University in 1946, earning its status as B. J. Medical College, offering L. C. P. S. diplomas.

Continuing its commitment to medical education, the college affiliated its undergraduate courses with Gujarat University in 1951, followed by postgraduate courses in 1956. Since then, Gujarat University has overseen its academic progression, fostering an environment where medical and paramedical education thrive.
