West Bengal's 4 largest listed cities add up to roughly 19.1 million people. Kolkata (15.8 million), Asansol (1.6 million) and Siliguri (1.0 million) lead the list, with 1 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 21,000 hospital beds, including some 1,100 ICU beds, in an estimated 420 hospitals (roughly 290 public and 130 private). West Bengal averages 1.10 beds per 1,000 people against about 1.39 for India, and about 31% of its beds are private.
On the national ratio of one practising doctor per 811 people, these cities would have about 24,000 doctors and 43,000 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 West Bengal.
West Bengal has infant mortality of 16 per 1,000 live births (India: 24) and modelled life expectancy of about 74.1 years (India: about 72). This page lists 4 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
- Check the qualification: MSc in Food & Nutrition or Dietetics, a PG diploma in dietetics, or a Registered Dietitian (RD) credential.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
