In 1959, the third medical school of Thailand was established in the city of Chiang Mai as the School of Medicine at Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital, University of Medical Science. It became the formal Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University when Chiang Mai University was established in 1965. Since then the Faculty has grown continuously and is now the largest medical school in northern Thailand. The Faculty of Medicine consists of two hospitals and one center including Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital, the Sriphat Medical Center, and the Center for Medical Excellence, respectively.
