Moradabad has an estimated 1.2 million (12 lakh) residents in 2025, based on Census 2011 scaled forward with a growth factor, so treat it as approximate. That makes it number 66 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.2% a year, it would reach about 1.3 million by 2030, so demand for dermatologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Uttar Pradesh's 1.25 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 1,500 hospital beds in Moradabad, including about 75 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 91 hospitals (about 25 public and 66 private). That is about 800 residents for every bed and around 16 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 1,500 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Moradabad, supported by around 2,700 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 Moradabad.
On health outcomes, Uttar Pradesh's infant mortality rate is 35 per 1,000 live births (2024), above the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 69.6 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 73% of hospital beds in Uttar Pradesh are private, so most people weigh private dermatologists against government outpatient departments.

How to choose a dermatologist in Moradabad
- 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 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.
"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 Moradabad
How do I find the best dermatologist in Moradabad?
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, Dr. Rishi Goel Dermatologist/ Skin & Hair clinic (HIG A-34, 1, Kanth Rd, opposite Laveena Restaurant, Ram Ganga Vihar, Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh 244105) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a dermatologist in Moradabad?
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 Moradabad?
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 Moradabad offer dermatologist services?
Moradabad has both government and private hospitals; availability of dermatologist services varies. Use the listings above as a starting point and confirm departments and timings by phone.
How do I know if I should see a dermatologist for acne in Moradabad?
If acne is painful, leaves marks, covers the chest or back, or has not improved after a few weeks of gentle skincare, a dermatologist can prescribe the right treatment and help prevent scarring. Self-medicating with steroid creams often makes skin problems worse.
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.
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 Moradabad have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 1,500 beds (around 75 ICU beds) for Moradabad. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
