With around 1.7 million (17 lakh) people (2025 estimate, from the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate), Jodhpur is number 45 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.4% a year, it would reach about 1.9 million by 2030, so demand for knee replacement surgeons and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Rajasthan's 1.20 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 2,000 hospital beds in Jodhpur, including about 100 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 120 hospitals (about 61 public and 60 private). That is about 833 residents for every bed and around 17 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 3,000 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 2,100 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Jodhpur, supported by around 3,700 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 Jodhpur.
On health outcomes, Rajasthan's infant mortality rate is 28 per 1,000 live births (2024), above the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 72.4 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 50% of hospital beds in Rajasthan are private, so most people weigh private knee replacement surgeons against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 knee replacement surgeon for Jodhpur, and 4 other cities in Rajasthan have their own knee replacement surgeon page below.

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.

Frequently asked questions: Knee Replacement Surgeons in Jodhpur
How do I find the best knee replacement surgeon in Jodhpur?
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 knee replacement surgeons, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register, and compare facilities and communication. On this page, Bone And Joint Hospital And Research Centre (KESHAV NAGAR, 15, Pal Rd, opp. ASHOK UDHYAN, Keshavnagar, Jodhpur, Rajasthan 342008) is one listed option - confirm details by phone before you visit.
How can I book an appointment with a knee replacement surgeon in Jodhpur?
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 knee replacement surgeon consultation cost in Jodhpur?
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 Jodhpur offer knee replacement surgeon services?
Well-known hospitals and institutions often named for Jodhpur include AIIMS Jodhpur and Dr SN Medical College, and the city also has many other hospitals and clinics. Each has its own outpatient timings and departments, so check availability for knee replacement surgeon services directly before you go. This is general information, not a complete directory.
When is knee replacement recommended?
Surgeons usually consider replacement when X-rays show advanced arthritis and pain remains severe despite medicines, physiotherapy, weight management and sometimes injections. The decision also depends on age, activity and overall health.
How long is recovery after knee replacement?
Most patients walk with support within a day or two, stay in hospital for a few days and continue physiotherapy for several weeks. Full recovery takes a few months and depends on rehabilitation and general health.
What should I ask before choosing a surgeon or hospital in Jodhpur?
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.
How many hospital beds does Jodhpur have?
No public source counts beds city by city. Scaling state data to the city population gives an estimate of about 2,000 beds (around 100 ICU beds) for Jodhpur. Treat it as a rough guide rather than an official count.
