Veterinarians in Vellore at a glance
Quick facts about Vellore and its healthcare system. Hospital, bed and doctor figures are estimates scaled from state and national data, because no public source counts them city by city.

With around 6.8 lakh (680,000) people (2025 estimate, from Census 2011 scaled forward with a growth factor, so treat it as approximate), Vellore is number 98 among the 100 largest cities in this directory and sits in the 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 veterinarians and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Tamilnadu's 1.91 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 1,300 hospital beds in Vellore, including about 65 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 20 hospitals (about 10 public and 10 private). That is about 524 residents for every bed and around 65 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 740 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 840 practising doctors across all systems of medicine in Vellore, supported by around 1,500 nurses and midwives. Veterinarians are registered with the Veterinary Council of India and are not part of the human-health workforce counted above. Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many veterinarians practise in Vellore.
On health outcomes, Tamilnadu's infant mortality rate is 11 per 1,000 live births (2024), well below the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 75.0 years against roughly 72 for India; these are state-wide measures, not city measurements. About 50% of hospital beds in Tamilnadu are private, so most people weigh private veterinarians against government outpatient departments. This page lists 13 veterinarians for Vellore, and 7 other cities in Tamilnadu have their own veterinarian page below.

(General-knowledge list; verify before relying on it.)
For context on health outcomes in Tamilnadu: the state infant mortality rate is 11 per 1,000 live births (2024), lower than the national figure of 24, and modelled life expectancy is about 75.0 years, above the national estimate of 72. These are state-wide figures, not city measurements.
Veterinary care is regulated separately from human medicine, by the Veterinary Council of India and State Veterinary Councils. Clinics differ in whether they treat only dogs and cats or also livestock and exotic pets, and in whether they offer emergency hours, so confirm this when you call.
Before you visit: what to carry
- Bring the vaccination card and earlier reports
