West Bengal's 4 largest listed cities add up to roughly 19.1 million people. Kolkata (15.8 million), Asansol (1.6 million) and Siliguri (1.0 million) lead the list, with 1 other cities behind them. Most figures are 2025 estimates and should be read as approximate.

Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 21,000 hospital beds, including some 1,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 420 hospitals (roughly 290 public and 130 private). West Bengal averages 1.10 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 31% of its beds are private.

On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 24,000 doctors and 43,000 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. Ayurveda and homeopathy practitioners are counted separately: India has about 7,51,768 registered AYUSH practitioners (all systems) against 13,86,150 registered allopathic doctors. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many ayurvedic doctors practise in West Bengal.

West Bengal has infant mortality of 16 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 74.1 years (India: about 72).

How to choose a ayurvedic doctor

  1. Check the qualification: BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery), with MD/MS (Ayurveda) for postgraduate practitioners.
  2. Verify registration with the National Commission for Indian System of Medicine (NCISM) and your State Ayurveda / Indian Medicine Board and note the registration number.
  3. Ask what the consultation includes and whether tests, follow-ups and procedures are charged separately.
  4. Look for clear, itemised communication about costs; avoid anyone who guarantees a cure.
  5. Check practical details: location, clinic hours, appointment system, and whether emergency back-up exists if something goes wrong.
Ayurvedic practitioners are registered under their own system. Ask the practitioner to show the BAMS/MD (Ayurveda) certificate and registration, and tell your regular doctor about herbal medicines you take.
