Jammu & Kashmir's 2 largest listed cities add up to roughly 2.7 million people. Srinagar (1.8 million) and Jammu (0.9 million) lead the list. Most figures are 2025 estimates and should be read as approximate.

Applying state-level hospital-bed ratios to these populations gives about 1,500 hospital beds, including some 77 ICU beds, in an estimated 30 hospitals (roughly 27 public and 3 private). Jammu & Kashmir averages 0.58 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 9% of its beds are private.

On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 3,300 doctors and 5,900 nurses and midwives across all systems of medicine. Nutritionists and dietitians are not counted in medical registers, and "nutritionist" is not a protected title in India, so qualifications matter more than the label. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many nutritionists practise in Jammu & Kashmir.

Jammu & Kashmir has infant mortality of 14 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 76.3 years (India: about 72). This page lists 2 nutritionists 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 nutritionist

  1. Check the qualification: MSc in Food & Nutrition or Dietetics, a PG diploma in dietetics, or a Registered Dietitian (RD) credential.
  2. Verify registration with there is no statutory register for "nutritionist" in India; the Indian Dietetic Association offers the RD credential, so ask to see qualification certificates.
  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.
The title "nutritionist" is not protected, so check qualifications. Be cautious about plans that promise rapid weight loss, rely on supplements or claim to cure disease.
