Nashik has an estimated 2.4 million (24 lakh) residents in 2025, based on the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate. That makes it number 29 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Large (2-5M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.5% a year, it would reach about 2.7 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 4,300 hospital beds in Nashik, including about 220 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 59 hospitals (about 13 public and 46 private). That is about 546 residents for every bed and around 73 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 2,800 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 2,900 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Nashik, supported by around 5,200 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 Nashik.
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 Nashik, and 18 other cities in Maharashtra have their own cardiologist page below.

How to choose a cardiologist in Nashik
- 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 how long the clinic has treated the condition you have, not just how long the doctor has practised.
- Read recent patient feedback on more than one platform, and be wary of identical glowing reviews.
- 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 Nashik
How do I find the best cardiologist in Nashik?
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, Vijan Hospital & Research Centre (Dr Vijan Hospital Marg, College Rd, Nashik, Maharashtra 422005) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a cardiologist in Nashik?
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 Nashik?
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 Nashik offer cardiologist services?
Nashik has both government and private hospitals; availability of cardiologist services varies. Use the listings above as a starting point and confirm departments and timings by phone.
When should I see a cardiologist rather than a general physician in Nashik?
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 Nashik 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 Nashik have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 4,300 beds (around 220 ICU beds) for Nashik. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
