Taken together, the 2 Jammu & Kashmir cities with a page here have an estimated 2.7 million residents (about 27 lakh) in 2025. The largest are Srinagar (1.8 million) and Jammu (0.9 million).

Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 1,500 hospital beds, including some 77 ICU beds, in an estimated 30 hospitals (roughly 27 public and 3 private). Jammu & Kashmir averages 0.58 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 9% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 3,300 doctors and 5,900 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine.

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

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.
