Gujarat's 6 largest listed cities add up to roughly 23.7 million people. Ahmedabad (9.1 million), Surat (8.6 million) and Vadodara (2.4 million) lead the list, with 3 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 23,000 hospital beds, including some 1,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 490 hospitals (roughly 150 public and 340 private). Gujarat averages 0.95 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 69% of its beds are private.

On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 29,000 doctors and 53,000 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. 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 Gujarat.

Gujarat has infant mortality of 19 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 72.7 years (India: about 72). This page lists 6 knee replacement surgeons 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 knee replacement surgeon

  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.
