Tamilnadu's 7 largest listed cities add up to roughly 22.5 million people. Chennai (12.3 million), Coimbatore (3.2 million) and Madurai (1.9 million) lead the list, with 4 other cities behind them. Most figures are 2025 estimates and should be read as approximate.
Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 43,000 hospital beds, including some 2,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 680 hospitals (roughly 340 public and 340 private). Tamilnadu averages 1.91 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 50% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 28,000 doctors and 50,000 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. 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 Tamilnadu.
Tamilnadu has infant mortality of 11 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 75.0 years (India: about 72). This page lists 7 ENT specialists 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 ENT specialist
- Check the qualification: MBBS with MS (ENT), DLO or DNB (Otorhinolaryngology).
- 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.
Hearing tests and nasal endoscopy are quick, outpatient procedures and are often available at the same clinic.
