King George's Medical University, also known as KGMC was established in 1906. However, it became operational only in 1911 only with the initiative of King George. After the Government of Uttar Pradesh passed an act on 16th September 2002, it was converted into a university.

King George's Medical University is approved and recognised by the Medical Council of India (MCI), New Delhi. By an act of the Parliament, the institute was recognised as an Institute of National Importance (INI). It was also recognised by the Dental Council of India (DCI) and the University Grants Commission (UGC) under Act, 1956.

Initially, King George's Medical University was under the control of the Government of the United Provinces. Allahabad University certified the degrees given to the students who passed out from this university. Later, Lucknow University took over the reigns of the college in 1921.

Through the Uttar Pradesh Chhatrapati Shahuji Medical University Act, 2002, the college was upgraded to a university and named Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj Medical University (CSMMU) by the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), which had formed the government in 2002, led by Mayawati.

In October 2003, through the Uttar Pradesh Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj Medical University (Second Amendment) Act, the university was once again named George's Medical University (KGMU). Again in 2007, it was renamed as Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj Medical University (CSMMU) after Mayawati got back the power and the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election was won by the BSP. Then in 2012, it was renamed as George's Medical University (KGMU) after the Akhilesh Yadav government came back to power.

The Week has ranked the university in the 13th position among all the medical institutions in India.  Under the Government of NCT of Uttar Pradesh, King George's Medical University has been declared as a 'Center of Excellence'. The university is rated as one of the best medical universities in the field of Medical Sciences.

Currently, King George's Medical University offers undergraduate, postgraduate, doctorate and add-on fellowship courses in medical streams.
