Gujarat's 6 largest listed cities add up to roughly 23.7 million people. Ahmedabad (9.1 million), Surat (8.6 million) and Vadodara (2.4 million) lead the list, with 3 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 23,000 hospital beds, including some 1,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 490 hospitals (roughly 150 public and 340 private). Gujarat averages 0.95 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 69% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 29,000 doctors and 53,000 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. 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 Gujarat.
Gujarat has infant mortality of 19 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 72.7 years (India: about 72). This page lists 6 cardiologists across these cities, and every city and sister city below has its own page with maps, qualifications to check and answers to common questions.

How to choose a cardiologist
- 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 Gujarat
Which cities in Gujarat have listed cardiologists?
We hold cardiologists listings for 6 cities in Gujarat, including Ahmedabad, Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, Bhavnagar and Jamnagar. Each city has its own page with contact details and local information.
How many cardiologists are listed in Gujarat?
This page shows 6 listed providers across 6 cities. It is a starting point rather than a complete register, so use the qualification and registration checks on each city page before booking.
Who is the best cardiologist in Gujarat?
There is no single best doctor for everyone: the right choice depends on your condition, budget and city. 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. Apex Heart Institute (Ahmedabad) is the first listing on this page - confirm details by phone.
When should I see a cardiologist rather than a general physician in Gujarat?
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.
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.
