AIIMS Rajkot OPD Appointment Online Registration 2026

Planning a visit to AIIMS Rajkot (Khanderi Campus) can be overwhelming if you just show up without a plan. As of March 2026, the hospital has moved almost entirely to a digital-first booking system.

Whether you are booking for yourself or a family member, this guide covers the exact 5-minute process to skip the 6:00 AM lines and get your consultation done smoothly.

âš¡ Quick Summary: How to Book AIIMS Rajkot OPD

  1. Best Way: Download the AIIMS Rajkot Swasthya app (Official) or visit ors.gov.in.

  2. Documents: Keep your Aadhaar Card and ABHA ID (if you have one) ready.

  3. Fee: ₹10–₹30 (Payable at the counter).

  4. Reporting Time: Reach at least 30–45 minutes before your slot.


1. Choosing Your Booking Method (App vs. Website)

In 2026, you have two reliable ways to book. Based on my experience, the Swasthya App is slightly faster for Rajkot-specific slots, while the ORS Portal is better if you are booking from a PC.

Method A: The AIIMS Rajkot Swasthya App (Recommended)

  • Step 1: Download the “AIIMS Rajkot Swasthya” app from the Play Store or App Store.

  • Step 2: Login using your mobile number and OTP.

  • Step 3: Click on ‘Appointment’ and select the department (e.g., Cardiology, Orthopedics).

  • Step 4: Choose your date and confirm. Take a screenshot of the confirmation.

Method B: The ORS Patient Portal

  • Visit ors.gov.in.

  • Search for Gujarat → AIIMS Rajkot.

  • Verify via Aadhaar for a “Fast Track” entry, or use your mobile number.

  • Select your slot and download the PDF slip.


2. Essential Checklist: What to Carry

Don’t get turned away at the gate. Make sure you have these in your bag:

  • Original Aadhaar Card: Mandatory for verification at the registration desk.

  • Appointment SMS/Slip: Digital copy on your phone is fine.

  • Previous Reports: If you have old X-rays, blood tests, or prescriptions, bring them in a folder.

  • Referral Letter: Only needed if you are visiting a specific Super-Specialty department.


3. 2026 OPD Timings & Registration Window

Day Registration Timings Consultation Hours

4. Pro-Tips for a Stress-Free Visit (The “Local” Advice)

  • The “Mid-Week” Secret: Mondays and Saturdays are incredibly crowded. If your case isn’t an emergency, try booking for a Tuesday or Wednesday. The waiting time is usually 40% less.

  • Parking & Transport: The Khanderi campus is huge. If you are bringing a senior citizen, look for the free electric rickshaws near the main gate; they will drop you right at the OPD entrance.

  • The Food Situation: There is a decent canteen on-site, but it gets packed by 1:00 PM. Carry a water bottle and some light snacks if you’re coming for a long consultation.

  • Reach Early: Even with an online slot, you must verify your ID at Counter 8 or 9 to get your physical OPD card. If you’re late, your slot might be given to a walk-in patient.


5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Is there a registration fee?

A: Yes, a nominal fee of ₹10–₹30 is charged at the counter when you collect your physical OPD card.

Q: Can I book for someone else?

A: Yes. In the ORS portal or Swasthya App, you can add “Family Members” to your profile and book using their details.

Q: What if online slots are full?
