With around 1.4 million (14 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Aligarh is number 61 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.5% a year, it would reach about 1.6 million by 2030, so demand for cardiologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Uttar Pradesh's 1.25 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 1,700 hospital beds in Aligarh, including about 86 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 100 hospitals (about 28 public and 76 private). That is about 800 residents for every bed and around 17 beds per hospital on average. Measured against the WHO's often-quoted benchmark of 3 beds per 1,000 people, the city would need roughly 2,400 more beds, which is one reason private clinics and hospitals carry so much of the load.
The same national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people suggests about 1,700 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Aligarh, supported by around 3,100 nurses and midwives. A cardiologist is one of many specialities within that total. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many cardiologists practise in Aligarh.
On health outcomes, Uttar Pradesh's infant mortality rate is 35 per 1,000 live births (2024), above the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 69.6 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 73% of hospital beds in Uttar Pradesh are private, so most people weigh private cardiologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 cardiologist for Aligarh, and 14 other cities in Uttar Pradesh have their own cardiologist page below.

How to choose a cardiologist in Aligarh
- Check the qualification: MBBS, MD (Medicine) and DM or DNB (Cardiology).
- Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register (look for a DM or DNB in Cardiology) and note the registration number.
- Ask what the consultation includes and whether tests, follow-ups and procedures are charged separately.
- Look for clear, itemised communication about costs; avoid anyone who guarantees a cure.
- Check practical details: location, clinic hours, appointment system, and whether emergency back-up exists if something goes wrong.
A cardiologist (physician) is different from a cardiac surgeon (MCh CTVS). Surgeons operate on the heart; cardiologists diagnose, treat with medicines and perform procedures such as angioplasty.

Frequently asked questions: Cardiologists in Aligarh
How do I find the best cardiologist in Aligarh?
There is no single best doctor for everyone: the right choice depends on your condition, budget and location. A good approach is to shortlist two or three cardiologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register (look for a DM or DNB in Cardiology), and compare facilities and communication. On this page, Dr Anshul Gupta (V3VR+HQG, Saraswati Vihar, Phase 1, New Vishnupuri, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh 202001) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a cardiologist in Aligarh?
Call the clinic or hospital number shown on the listing, use WhatsApp where it is shown, or visit during outpatient hours. Ask about the consultation fee, whether an appointment is needed, and which documents or earlier reports to bring.
How much does a cardiologist consultation cost in Aligarh?
Fees depend on the doctor's experience, the type of facility and the tests or procedures involved, and we do not publish unverified prices. Ask the clinic for the consultation fee and any follow-up charges when you call; government hospitals generally charge much less than private clinics.
Which hospitals in Aligarh offer cardiologist services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Aligarh include JN Medical College (AMU), and the city also has many other hospitals and clinics. Each has its own outpatient timings and departments, so check availability for cardiologist services directly before you go. This is general information, not a complete directory.
When should I see a cardiologist rather than a general physician in Aligarh?
See a cardiologist for chest discomfort on exertion, palpitations, unexplained breathlessness, fainting, or if you have had a heart attack or stent. A general physician can do the first check and refer you, but a cardiologist can interpret echo, TMT and angiography results.
What is the difference between a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon?
A cardiologist treats heart disease with medicines and catheter-based procedures like angioplasty. A cardiac surgeon (MCh CTVS) performs open or minimally invasive surgery such as bypass or valve replacement. They often work together on the same patient.
Can I get a heart check-up in Aligarh without symptoms?
Yes. Preventive check-ups usually include blood pressure, ECG, lipid profile and sugar tests, and are worth considering after 40, or earlier with diabetes, smoking, obesity or a family history of heart disease.
How many hospital beds does Aligarh have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 1,700 beds (around 86 ICU beds) for Aligarh. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
