The Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council (BMDC) is a regulatory body responsible for overseeing medical and dental education in Bangladesh. Established in 1980, its primary role is to ensure that medical and dental professionals meet the required standards of education and practice. The council also maintains a register of qualified practitioners and issues licenses to practice medicine and dentistry. In addition to regulating education, the BMDC plays a crucial role in setting guidelines for medical ethics and professional conduct. It conducts examinations for foreign medical graduates and ensures that healthcare services in Bangladesh are delivered safely and effectively.
