Gynecologists in Bhubaneswar at a glance
Quick facts about Bhubaneswar 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.

With around 1.2 million (12 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from Census 2011 scaled forward with a growth factor, so treat it as approximate), Bhubaneswar is number 67 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the 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 gynecologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Odisha's 0.54 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 650 hospital beds in Bhubaneswar, including about 32 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 64 hospitals (about 46 public and 18 private). That is about 1852 residents for every bed and around 10 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 2,900 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 1,500 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Bhubaneswar, supported by around 2,700 nurses and midwives. A gynecologist 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 gynecologists practise in Bhubaneswar.
On health outcomes, Odisha's infant mortality rate is 28 per 1,000 live births (2024), above the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 71.8 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 28% of hospital beds in Odisha are private, so most people weigh private gynecologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 gynecologist for Bhubaneswar, and 1 other city in Odisha have their own gynecologist page below.

Both spellings (gynecologist and gynaecologist) are used in India; the listings on this page cover both. For delivery, check that the hospital has neonatal care available.

Frequently asked questions: Gynecologists in Bhubaneswar
Who is the best gynecologist in Bhubaneswar?
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 gynecologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register, and compare facilities and communication. On this page, Dr Alakta Das (CARE Hospitals, plot 324, Prachi Enclave Rd, Rail Vihar, Chandrasekharpur, Bhubaneswar, Odisha 751016) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a gynecologist in Bhubaneswar?
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 gynecologist consultation cost in Bhubaneswar?
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 Bhubaneswar offer gynecologist services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Bhubaneswar include AIIMS Bhubaneswar and Capital Hospital, and the city also has many other hospitals and clinics. Each has its own outpatient timings and departments, so check availability for gynecologist services directly before you go. This is general information, not a complete directory.
At what age should a woman first visit a gynecologist?
There is no fixed age. A visit is sensible when periods are very painful or irregular, when you become sexually active and want advice on contraception, or when planning a pregnancy. Pap smear screening is generally discussed from the early twenties to thirties depending on guidelines your doctor follows.
What does a first antenatal visit usually involve?
Expect a history, blood pressure and weight check, blood tests, an early ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy and date it, and advice on folic acid, diet and vaccinations. The doctor will then schedule regular check-ups and growth scans.
Can I consult a gynecologist for PCOS or irregular periods in Bhubaneswar?
Yes. Gynecologists evaluate PCOS and cycle problems with an ultrasound and hormone tests, and combine medicines with lifestyle and nutrition advice. Some clinics work with a dietitian, which can help with weight management.
How many hospital beds does Bhubaneswar have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 650 beds (around 32 ICU beds) for Bhubaneswar. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
