description This article examines some of the institutions and health care in Goa to discuss the dynamics of power in colonial society. If at first the sumptuous Royal Hospital appears as an operator of segregation, soon becomes an arena for power games involving local groups, religious orders, hierarchies of the state. In early nineteenth century the military hospital is mentioned in official sources as a place of chaos and self-government, but can also be seen as an area in which it develops the influence of some local groups medical institutions, that, in considering the author, will help create a medical school and hospital when they move to the capital Panaji/Goa.
