Gwalior has an estimated 1.5 million (15 lakh) residents in 2025, based on the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate. That makes it number 51 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.3% a year, it would reach about 1.7 million by 2030, so demand for gynecologists 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 1,200 hospital beds in Gwalior, including about 61 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 19 hospitals (about 9 public and 10 private). That is about 1266 residents for every bed and around 64 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 3,400 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 1,900 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Gwalior, supported by around 3,400 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 Gwalior.
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 gynecologists against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 gynecologist for Gwalior, and 4 other cities in Madhya Pradesh have their own gynecologist page below.

Frequently asked questions: Gynecologists in Gwalior
How do I find the best gynecologist in Gwalior?

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.

How can I book an appointment with a gynecologist in Gwalior?
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 Gwalior?
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.

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 Gwalior?
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.
