ENT Specialists in Indore at a glance
Quick facts about Indore and its healthcare system. Hospital, bed and doctor figures are estimates scaled from state and national data, because no public source counts them city by city.

Indore has an estimated 3.5 million (35 lakh) residents in 2025, based on the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate. That makes it number 16 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Large (2-5M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.6% a year, it would reach about 4.0 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 2,800 hospital beds in Indore, including about 140 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 41 hospitals (about 20 public and 21 private). That is about 1266 residents for every bed and around 67 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 7,700 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 4,300 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Indore, supported by around 7,800 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 Indore.
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 Indore, and 4 other cities in Madhya Pradesh have their own ENT specialist page below.

- Ask how long the clinic has treated the condition you have, not just how long the doctor has practised.

Healthcare in Indore: the bigger picture
No public source counts hospitals city by city, so these figures are estimates: roughly 2,800 beds and 41 hospitals for Indore. Madhya Pradesh state averages about 0.8 hospital beds per 1,000 people, below the India-wide figure of roughly 1.4. The private sector holds about 52% of beds in Madhya Pradesh.
Well-known hospitals and institutions commonly named for Indore include MGM Medical College / MY Hospital.

(General-knowledge list; verify before relying on it.)
For context on health outcomes in Madhya Pradesh: the state infant mortality rate is 35 per 1,000 live births (2024), higher than the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 70.6 years, near the national estimate of 72. These are state-wide figures, not city measurements.
Across all systems of medicine, Indore is estimated to have around 4,300 practising doctors at the national ratio of one per 811 people. Specialist numbers are not published by city, so a ENT specialist's qualification and registration are the best things to verify.
Before you visit: what to carry

- Note which ear or side is affected and when it started
- List any nasal sprays or drops you use

How much does a ENT specialist consultation cost in Indore?
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.
