The surgical wards are located in a separate building which is popularly known as the "stone building".

The repairs scheduled to be carried out in February 2023, for the buildings of KR Hospital, Chuluvamba Hospital and other facilities under the Mysore Medical College and Research Institute (MMC&RI) were put off due to procedures needed to take up repairs for a heritage building. Later, they were completed and the hospitals under MMC&RI got further hi-tech upgrades in March 2026.
