With around 2.7 million (27 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Bhopal is number 23 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Large (2-5M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.3% a year, it would reach about 3.0 million by 2030, so demand for ENT specialists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Madhya Pradesh's 0.79 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 2,100 hospital beds in Bhopal, including about 110 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 32 hospitals (about 15 public and 17 private). That is about 1266 residents for every bed and around 66 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 5,900 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 3,300 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Bhopal, supported by around 6,000 nurses and midwives. A ENT specialist 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 ENT specialists practise in Bhopal.
On health outcomes, Madhya 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 70.6 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 52% of hospital beds in Madhya Pradesh are private, so most people weigh private ENT specialists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 ENT specialist for Bhopal, and 4 other cities in Madhya Pradesh have their own ENT specialist page below.
