Christu Christuraj Hospital, Thokkilangady belonging to the Sacred Heart Sisters of Thalassery Province is one of the premier institutions in the health scenario of Malabar. It was established on 23rd June 1983, and it is situated in the municipal area of Kuthuparamba, alongside Thalassery – Mysore – interstate highway. The inception of the hospital was in tune with the Mission and Vision of the Sacred Heart Congregation.

The source of inspiration for every activity of this sort is the founder Venerable Rev. Fr. Mathew Kadalikkattil, a great visionary and a luminary. The commencement of the functioning of the hospital was in a humble way with 25 beds, a single doctor and a small team of dedicated staff. The formal inauguration of the hospital was done by Mar Sebastian Vallopilly, the founder Bishop of Thalassery Diocese on 23rd June 1983 and the same day witnessed the blessing ceremony of the institution by Mar Jacob Thoomkuzhy, the first Bishop of Mananthavady Diocese.

As to serve the medical needs of the people of Malabar in a better way the hospital manifested the trends of expansion gradually. Now it has turned into a 100 bedded multispeciality hospital.

The beginning of Christuraj Nursing School in 2002 is a milestone in the history of the hospital. It serves as an affordable 'promised land' for the girls irrespective of caste and creed from the underdeveloped regions of Malabar who aspire intensely to dedicate themselves in the medical field and thereby to support their families.

Christuraj Hospital, celebrating its Silver Jubilee in the year 2008 is proud of having rendered yeoman service as a health care centre in the periphery catering to the needs of the inhabitants of Malabar who find most of the hospitals un accessible in many ways, right from inception.

A new unit of Christuraj Hospital that is CIMHANS (Christuraj Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences) officially inaugurated on 01/12/2019 is another milestone in the historical events in the scenario of Christuraj Hospital.
