With around 1.8 million (18 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Aurangabad is number 43 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.4% a year, it would reach about 2.0 million by 2030, so demand for dermatologists 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 3,200 hospital beds in Aurangabad, including about 160 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 45 hospitals (about 10 public and 35 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 2,100 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 2,200 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Aurangabad, supported by around 3,900 nurses and midwives. A dermatologist 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 dermatologists practise in Aurangabad.

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 dermatologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 dermatologist for Aurangabad, and 18 other cities in Maharashtra have their own dermatologist page below.

How to choose a dermatologist in Aurangabad

  1. Check the qualification: MBBS with MD (Dermatology, Venereology & Leprosy), DDVL or DNB.
  2. Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register 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.
"Cosmetologist" is not a protected medical qualification. For medical skin and hair problems look for a registered dermatologist (MD/DDVL/DNB).

Frequently asked questions: Dermatologists in Aurangabad

Who is the best dermatologist in Aurangabad?

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 dermatologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register, and compare facilities and communication. On this page, Sanjivani Hospital & Skin care Center Bajajnagar Waluj (MANALI SQUARE, Dakshin Mukhi Hanuman Temple, near Gorakh Wagh Chowk, MIDC Waluj, Bajaj Nagar, Waluj, Wadgaon Kolhati, Maharashtra 431136) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.

How can I book an appointment with a dermatologist in Aurangabad?

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 dermatologist consultation cost in Aurangabad?

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 Aurangabad offer dermatologist services?

Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Aurangabad include Govt Medical College & Hospital (Ghati), and the city also has many other hospitals and clinics. Each has its own outpatient timings and departments, so check availability for dermatologist services directly before you go. This is general information, not a complete directory.

Is hair loss treated by a dermatologist?

Yes. Dermatologists diagnose the type of hair loss, order blood tests for causes such as thyroid problems or low iron, and suggest medical treatments or procedures. Treatment usually needs a few months before results are visible.

What is the difference between a dermatologist and a cosmetologist?

A dermatologist is a medical doctor with a postgraduate degree in skin diseases. "Cosmetologist" is a broader title that can include non-doctors. For diseases, infections or anything involving prescription medicines, choose a registered dermatologist.

Can skin problems be linked to other health conditions?

Sometimes. Persistent itching, dark patches or recurrent infections can be connected to diabetes, thyroid disease or nutritional deficiencies, so a dermatologist may suggest blood tests alongside skin treatment.

How many hospital beds does Aurangabad have?

No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 3,200 beds (around 160 ICU beds) for Aurangabad. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
