PGIMER publishes different phone numbers for different patient tasks. There is no single number that should be treated as a universal “PGI appointment helpline.” Use the contact that matches the service—New OPD, emergency enquiry, a specific advanced centre, or another published helpline.
Verified PGIMER patient contacts
The directory below is generated from structured records checked against PGIMER-controlled pages. This means a phone-number correction can be made once in WordPress and reflected wherever the contact component is used.
Which PGIMER number should I call?
Routine New OPD question
Start with the New OPD reception numbers during the published reception hours when the question is about New OPD navigation or a routine operational issue.
Emergency / urgent hospital enquiry
Use PGIMER’s published emergency enquiry/reception route. Do not wait for a routine online-registration response if the patient needs emergency care.
Advanced centre
PGIMER publishes separate round-the-clock reception numbers for Advanced Trauma, Cardiac, Paediatric and Eye centres.
Special-purpose helpline
Use the dedicated number only for the service it is labelled for—for example brain stroke, dental trauma, gastro or dermatology teleconsultation.

General PGIMER enquiry numbers
PGIMER’s current contact page groups several numbers under general queries such as admitted-patient details, online appointment/registration questions, doctor/OPD schedule, PGI timing, holidays and general enquiries. Our structured directory keeps the emergency/reception context separate so users are less likely to mistake one number for a dedicated appointment-booking line.
Before you call
- Know the department or service name if possible.
- Keep the patient’s CR Number available if the question genuinely relates to an existing PGIMER record—but do not post it publicly.
- Do not assume a reception number can reserve a named consultant.
- If a number does not connect, recheck the live PGIMER directory because hospital extensions and routes can change.
Emergency information
This page is a directory, not an emergency medical service. If the patient needs urgent care, use the appropriate emergency route instead of delaying care while trying to complete routine OPD pre-registration.
PGIMER contact questions
What is the PGIMER New OPD number?
The current PGIMER patient-care page lists +91-172-2756868 and +91-172-2756969 for New OPD reception, with reception hours currently shown as 7:00 AM–4:00 PM.
Is there one official “PGI appointment number”?
PGIMER publishes multiple patient contacts rather than one universal appointment-booking number. Online registration/pre-registration is handled through the official portal.
Can I call an advanced centre directly?
PGIMER publishes separate reception numbers for several advanced centres; use the relevant centre’s published reception number.
How often should phone numbers be rechecked?
Before relying on a number after a long gap, compare it with the live PGIMER helpline/contact page. Contact details are treated as high-change information on this site.
