    Fr. Muller's Charitable Institution that we know most affectionately for more than seventy years has in possession THREE MAJOR attributes that have helped this esteemed Medical Organization from the very beginning. These 3 major Milestones of Fr. Muller's Institution are as follows:-

    a) The keen and enthusiastic support of each and every Bishop of Mangalore who have given their wholehearted support to Fr. Mullers, as one of their most intimate project that has catered tens of thousands of inpatients as well as outpatients. We distinctly remember seventy years ago, when late Bishop Victor Fernandes used to visit Fr. Muller's almost every day in his three wheeler motor bike.

    b) The most dedicated and untiring work of the nuns of Sisters of Charity who have given their very best of nuns for the Management and upkeep of the entire Institution with a touch of class and quality with a selfless attitude.

    c) The creation of the Nursing School and then the Medical College that have groomed some of the best Nurses and Doctors for the entire Institution. The discipline and quality of the Medical staff of Fr. Muller's is truly "out of this world" and we shall always remain grateful to them for their noble work.

    We are truly proud of Fr. Mullers, and we pray to God that this Institute should continue to multiply in every step of the way in order to serve the sick and also the needy.
