Couples from Porbandar city and the Ranavav and Kutiyana talukas come to the Jamnagar centre for fertility consultation and IVF care. Jamnagar is about two hours up the coast by car, and direct trains and buses run between the two cities, so a first visit can usually be made as a day trip.

By car or taxi: about 120–130 km. The usual road runs north along the coast to Khambhalia and then east to Jamnagar (NH-151AD, then NH-151A). The inland road through Bhanvad and Lalpur is about as long. Allow about 2 hours, more in traffic.
By train: direct trains run from Porbandar station to Jamnagar through Wansjaliya and take about 2 to 2¾ hours. Most are long-distance trains that run on set days, and the daily Saurashtra Express reaches Jamnagar late at night, so check times on NTES or IRCTC before you plan.
By bus: private buses leave Porbandar for Jamnagar from morning to evening and take about 3 to 3¾ hours. Ask at the Porbandar ST bus stand about GSRTC buses on the day.
In Jamnagar: the hospital is on Pandit Nehru Road, near Amber Cinema and opposite the Income Tax office. It is about 1.5 km from the Jamnagar ST bus depot and about 3 km from Jamnagar railway station, a short auto ride from either.
