Cardiologists in Nagpur at a glance

Quick facts about Nagpur and its healthcare system. Hospital, bed and doctor figures are estimates scaled from state and national data, because no public source counts them city by city.

With around 3.2 million (32 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Nagpur is number 19 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Large (2-5M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.1% a year, it would reach about 3.5 million by 2030, so demand for cardiologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.

Scaling Maharashtra's 1.83 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 5,800 hospital beds in Nagpur, including about 290 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 80 hospitals (about 18 public and 62 private). That is about 546 residents for every bed and around 72 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 3,700 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 3,900 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Nagpur, supported by around 7,100 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 Nagpur.

On health outcomes, Maharashtra's infant mortality rate is 13 per 1,000 live births (2024), well below the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 74.5 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 78% of hospital beds in Maharashtra are private, so most people weigh private cardiologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 cardiologist for Nagpur, and 18 other cities in Maharashtra have their own cardiologist page below.

What cardiologists in Nagpur treat

A cardiologist (heart specialist) in Nagpur typically helps with the following problems. Not every clinic offers every service, so ask before you go.

Common conditions and services
  • Chest pain evaluation
  • Heart failure
  • Irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Post-heart-attack follow-up
  • Preventive heart screening
Tests and checks you may be asked for

Also searched as: heart doctor, heart specialist, angioplasty doctor, cardiac care.

When to see a cardiologist in Nagpur

  • Chest discomfort on exertion
  • A family history of early heart disease
  • Diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol
  • Swelling of the feet with tiredness
  • Follow-up after a heart attack, stent or bypass
Emergency: Sudden chest pain spreading to the arm or jaw, sweating or collapse may be a heart attack: call 108 immediately and do not drive yourself. India's free ambulance number is 108.

How to choose a cardiologist in Nagpur

  1. Check the qualification: MBBS, MD (Medicine) and DM or DNB (Cardiology).
  2. Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register (look for a DM or DNB in Cardiology) 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.
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 Nagpur: the bigger picture

No public source counts hospitals city by city, so these figures are estimates: roughly 5,800 beds and 80 hospitals for Nagpur. Maharashtra state averages about 1.8 hospital beds per 1,000 people, above the India-wide figure of roughly 1.4. The private sector holds about 78% of beds in Maharashtra.

Well-known hospitals and institutions commonly named for Nagpur include AIIMS Nagpur and Govt Medical College (Mayo). Government outpatient departments can be crowded, which is one reason many people also consult a private Cardiologist - ask each place about timings and documents to bring. (General-knowledge list; verify before relying on it.)

For context on health outcomes in Maharashtra: the state infant mortality rate is 13 per 1,000 live births (2024), lower than the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 74.5 years, above the national estimate of 72. These are state-wide figures, not city measurements.

Across all systems of medicine, Nagpur is estimated to have around 3,900 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.

Before you visit: what to carry

  • Bring earlier ECGs, echo and angiography reports
  • Note when the discomfort occurs and how long it lasts
  • Wear comfortable clothes if a treadmill test is planned

Frequently asked questions: Cardiologists in Nagpur

How do I find the best cardiologist in Nagpur?

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, Arneja Heart & Multispeciality Hospital (Plot No 123, behind Somalwar High School, Rajmachi, Ramdaspeth, Nagpur, Maharashtra 440010) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.

How can I book an appointment with a cardiologist in Nagpur?

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 Nagpur?

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 Nagpur offer cardiologist services?

Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Nagpur include AIIMS Nagpur and Govt Medical College (Mayo), 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 Nagpur?

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.

Can I get a heart check-up in Nagpur 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 Nagpur have?

No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 5,800 beds (around 290 ICU beds) for Nagpur. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
