CARe Medical College (CAReMC) (Bengali: কেয়ার মেডিকেল কলেজ) is a private medical school in Asad Gate, Mohammadpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh. CAReMC was established in 2014. The college grew out of CARe Specialized Hospital. The name CARe stands for Center for Assisted Reproduction.[2]

As of 2022, the degree awarded by CARE is not recognized by the Bangladesh Medical Dental Council. Although the certificate is given from Dhaka University, registration as a doctor is not given due to lack of approval. The college was blacklisted by the Ministry of Health and Planning of Bangladesh and a ban on admission was imposed.[3][4]

The college is associated with CARe Specialized Hospital, a 250-bed hospital about 800 metres (2,600 ft) north, in College Gate. This was the first institute of assisted reproduction in the country that is equipped with the technologies required for in vitro fertilization (IVF). Triplets Heera, Moni, and Mukta, born at the centre on 30 May 2001, were the country's first IVF babies.[2]
