Gynecologists in Delhi at a glance
Quick facts about Delhi 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 34.7 million (347 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Delhi is number 1 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Metro (5M+) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.5% a year, it would reach about 39.3 million by 2030, so demand for gynecologists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Delhi's 2.08 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 72,000 hospital beds in Delhi, including about 3,600 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 320 hospitals (about 200 public and 120 private). That is about 481 residents for every bed and around 220 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 32,000 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 43,000 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Delhi, supported by around 77,000 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 Delhi.
On health outcomes, Delhi's infant mortality rate is 11 per 1,000 live births (2024), well below the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 73.8 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 38% of hospital beds in Delhi are private, so most people weigh private gynecologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 gynecologist for Delhi.

How to choose a gynecologist in Delhi
- Check the qualification: MBBS with MD/MS (Obstetrics & Gynaecology), DGO 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.
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.
Healthcare in Delhi: the bigger picture
No public source counts hospitals city by city, so these figures are estimates: roughly 72,000 beds and 320 hospitals for Delhi. Delhi state averages about 2.1 hospital beds per 1,000 people, above the India-wide figure of roughly 1.4. The private sector holds about 38% of beds in Delhi.
Well-known hospitals and institutions commonly named for Delhi include AIIMS Delhi, Safdarjung, RML, LHMC and Maulana Azad MC. Government outpatient departments can be crowded, which is one reason many people also consult a private Gynecologist - ask each place about timings and documents to bring. (General-knowledge list; verify before relying on it.)
For context on health outcomes in Delhi: the state infant mortality rate is 11 per 1,000 live births (2024), lower than the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 73.8 years, above the national estimate of 72. These are state-wide figures, not city measurements.
Across all systems of medicine, Delhi is estimated to have around 43,000 practising doctors at the national ratio of one per 811 people. Specialist numbers are not published by city, so a gynecologist's qualification and registration are the best things to verify.
Data note: UN figure is the NCR agglomeration but the state ratios use Delhi-state population, so city estimates run high.
Before you visit: what to carry
- Note the first day of your last period
- List medicines, allergies and any earlier surgeries
- Ask whether the clinic provides delivery and NICU back-up if you are pregnant
Frequently asked questions: Gynecologists in Delhi
How do I find the best gynecologist in Delhi?
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 Vaishali Sharma (ground floor, metro station, S-345, Ground Floor, S 347, near Panchsheel park, Panchsheel Park, New Delhi, Delhi 110017) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a gynecologist in Delhi?
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 Delhi?
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 Delhi offer gynecologist services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Delhi include AIIMS Delhi, Safdarjung, RML, LHMC and Maulana Azad MC, 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.
How do I choose a gynecologist or obstetrician in Delhi?
Check the qualification (MD/MS in Obstetrics & Gynaecology, DGO or DNB), whether the doctor practises at a hospital with delivery and NICU facilities if you are pregnant, and how comfortable you feel asking questions. Ask whether antenatal packages are itemised so there are no surprises.
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.
Can I consult a gynecologist for PCOS or irregular periods in Delhi?
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 Delhi have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 72,000 beds (around 3,600 ICU beds) for Delhi. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
