Ujjain has an estimated 7.0 lakh (695,000) residents in 2025, based on Census 2011 scaled forward with a growth factor, so treat it as approximate. That makes it number 95 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Small (<1M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.2% a year, it would reach about 0.8 million by 2030, so demand for knee replacement surgeons 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 550 hospital beds in Ujjain, including about 28 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 8 hospitals (about 4 public and 4 private). That is about 1266 residents for every bed and around 69 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 1,500 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 860 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Ujjain, supported by around 1,600 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 Ujjain.
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 knee replacement surgeons against government outpatient departments. This page lists 1 knee replacement surgeon for Ujjain, and 4 other cities in Madhya Pradesh have their own knee replacement surgeon page below.

How to choose a knee replacement surgeon in Ujjain
- Check the qualification: MBBS with MS/DNB (Orthopaedics) and joint-replacement fellowship training.
- Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register and note the registration number.
- Ask how long the clinic has treated the condition you have, not just how long the doctor has practised.
- Read recent patient feedback on more than one platform, and be wary of identical glowing reviews.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions: Knee Replacement Surgeons in Ujjain
Who is the best knee replacement surgeon in Ujjain?

How can I book an appointment with a knee replacement surgeon in Ujjain?
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 Ujjain?
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 Ujjain offer knee replacement surgeon services?
Ujjain has both government and private hospitals; availability of knee replacement surgeon services varies. Use the listings above as a starting point and confirm departments and timings by phone.
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.
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.
