With around 9.6 lakh (964,000) people (2025 estimate, from Census 2011 scaled forward with a growth factor, so treat it as approximate), Dehradun is number 73 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Small (<1M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.2% a year, it would reach about 1.1 million by 2030, so demand for cardiologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Uttarakhand's 2.09 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 2,000 hospital beds in Dehradun, including about 100 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 110 hospitals (about 39 public and 70 private). That is about 478 residents for every bed and around 18 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 880 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 1,200 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Dehradun, supported by around 2,100 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 Dehradun.
On health outcomes, Uttarakhand's infant mortality rate is 19 per 1,000 live births (2024), well below the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 72.0 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 64% of hospital beds in Uttarakhand are private, so most people weigh private cardiologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 cardiologist for Dehradun.

How to choose a cardiologist in Dehradun
- 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.
Healthcare in Dehradun: the bigger picture
Using state-level data scaled to its population, Dehradun is estimated to have about 2,000 hospital beds across roughly 110 hospitals, including around 100 ICU beds. Uttarakhand state averages about 2.1 hospital beds per 1,000 people, above the India-wide figure of roughly 1.4. About 64% of beds in Uttarakhand are in the private sector, so many patients choose between private clinics and government hospitals depending on cost and the kind of care needed.
Major hospitals and teaching institutions often associated with Dehradun include Govt Doon Medical College and AIIMS Rishikesh (nearby). Availability of Cardiologist services varies by department and by day, so check outpatient timings directly before visiting. (This list is general knowledge, not a complete or verified directory, and includes both public and private institutions.)
For context on health outcomes in Uttarakhand: the state infant mortality rate is 19 per 1,000 live births (2024), lower than the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 72.0 years, near the national estimate of 72. These are state-wide figures, not city measurements.
Across all systems of medicine, Dehradun is estimated to have around 1,200 practising doctors at the national ratio of one per 811 people. Specialist numbers are not published by city, so a cardiologist's qualification and registration are the best things to verify.

- Note when the discomfort occurs and how long it lasts
- Wear comfortable clothes if a treadmill test is planned
Frequently asked questions: Cardiologists in Dehradun
Who is the best cardiologist in Dehradun?
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, City Heart Centre (55, EC Road, Panchpuri Colony, Dalanwala, Dehradun, Uttarakhand 248001) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a cardiologist in Dehradun?
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 Dehradun?
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 Dehradun offer cardiologist services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Dehradun include Govt Doon Medical College and AIIMS Rishikesh (nearby), 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.
Which heart tests are usually done first?
An ECG is quick and widely available. Based on your history the cardiologist may add an echocardiogram to look at heart function, a treadmill test to see how the heart behaves under stress, and blood tests such as a lipid profile. Angiography is reserved for cases where blockages are suspected.
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 Dehradun 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 Dehradun have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 2,000 beds (around 100 ICU beds) for Dehradun. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
