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 knee replacement surgeons 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 knee replacement surgeon 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 knee replacement surgeons 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 knee replacement surgeons against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 knee replacement surgeon for Bhubaneswar, and 1 other city in Odisha have their own knee replacement surgeon page below.

How to choose a knee replacement surgeon in Bhubaneswar

  1. Check the qualification: MBBS with MS/DNB (Orthopaedics) and joint-replacement fellowship training.
  2. Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register and note the registration number.
  3. Ask what the consultation includes and whether tests, follow-ups and procedures are charged separately.
  4. Look for clear, itemised communication about costs; avoid anyone who guarantees a cure.
  5. Check practical details: location, clinic hours, appointment system, and whether emergency back-up exists if something goes wrong.
Knee replacement is a decision for the patient and surgeon together, after non-surgical options have been tried. Ask for the package details in writing, and be careful with unverified price claims.

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.

What should I ask before choosing a surgeon or hospital in Bhubaneswar?

Ask about the surgeon's experience with knee replacement, the implant options, infection-control practices, ICU back-up, what the package includes and what physiotherapy is provided. A second opinion is always reasonable.

Is robotic knee replacement better?

Robotic assistance can help with precise implant positioning, but the surgeon's experience and your rehabilitation matter as much. Ask the surgeon why a particular approach is suggested for you.
