Odisha's 2 largest listed cities add up to roughly 2.1 million people. Bhubaneswar (1.2 million) and Cuttack (0.9 million) lead the list. Most figures are 2025 estimates and should be read as approximate.
Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 1,100 hospital beds, including some 56 ICU beds, in an estimated 110 hospitals (roughly 80 public and 31 private). Odisha averages 0.54 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 28% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 2,600 doctors and 4,700 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. 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 Odisha.
Odisha has infant mortality of 28 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 71.8 years (India: about 72). This page lists 2 dermatologists across these cities, and every city and sister city below has its own page with maps, qualifications to check and answers to common questions.

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).
Frequently asked questions: Dermatologists in Odisha

Who is the best dermatologist in Odisha?

Shortlist two or three dermatologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register, and compare facilities and communication.

How do I know if I should see a dermatologist for acne in Odisha?
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.
