Taken together, the 7 Kerala cities with a page here have an estimated 23.8 million residents (about 238 lakh) in 2025. The largest are Kozhikode (4.4 million), Malappuram (4.3 million) and Thrissur (3.7 million), followed by 4 smaller cities. Population figures come from the UN's 2024 urban-area estimates for the biggest cities and from scaled Census 2011 data for the rest.
Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 63,000 hospital beds, including some 3,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 2,100 hospitals (roughly 810 public and 1,300 private). Kerala averages 2.63 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 62% 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 neurologist 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 neurologists practise in Kerala.
Kerala has infant mortality of 8 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 78.0 years (India: about 72). This page lists 7 neurologists across these cities, and every city and sister city below has its own page with maps, qualifications to check and answers to common questions.

- Tremor or slowness of movement
- Forgetfulness that affects daily life
Emergency: Sudden weakness on one side, slurred speech, facial droop, a severe sudden headache or a prolonged seizure may be a stroke or emergency: call 108 at once; every minute matters. India's free ambulance number is 108.
How to choose a neurologist
- Check the qualification: MBBS, MD (Medicine) and DM or DNB (Neurology).
- Verify registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register (look for a DM or DNB in Neurology) 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.
Neurosurgeons (MCh) operate on the brain and spine and are a different specialty from neurologists, who diagnose and treat with medicines and non-surgical care.

Who is the best neurologist in Kerala?

Shortlist two or three neurologists, check their qualification and registration with the NMC / State Medical Council register (look for a DM or DNB in Neurology), and compare facilities and communication. Dr Pratheesh Neurology Clinic (Kozhikode) is the first listing on this page - confirm details by phone.
What is the difference between a neurologist and a neurosurgeon?
A neurologist diagnoses and treats conditions of the brain, spinal cord and nerves mostly with medicines and therapy. A neurosurgeon performs operations when surgery is needed. They commonly refer patients to each other.
Do I need an MRI for every neurological complaint?
No. Many conditions are diagnosed after a careful history and examination. The neurologist orders an MRI, CT or EEG only when it will change the diagnosis or treatment.
