Default Duplicate Title Tags

In my website i have more than 10 pages of one category, so it is obvious that i should have same title tag for all these 10 pages with Same Page Heading, but google gives "duplicate title Tag" and "duplicate Description" error.
what can i do
should i "NoIndex,Follow" other pages rather than first page, if so then my remaining page creating effort is useless.

E.g

Url 1: Doctors in Delhi Page Number: 1 - Moogle.in ......here it is P1
Title 1: Doctors In Delhi

Url 2: Doctors in Delhi Page Number: 2 - Moogle.in ......here it is P2
Title 2: Doctors In Delhi

Two pages have different content with Same Heading

If i give Title Like This:

Doctors In Delhi
Doctors In Delhi Page 1
Doctors In Delhi Page 2
Doctors In Delhi Page 3

Then H1 Tag for all Pages Will be "Doctors In Delhi" with different Content

will google accept it?
When these pages are indexed, what will google show ?
will it show all my pages when any body Searches "Doctors In Delhi" in google?

What about if i "NoIndex" other pages except first?


What should i do now?

I personally do the following

Use "Page x" at the front of the title of the page 2 etc pages.

Have an intro paragraph (including the search phrases of the page) for the first page, and don't have an intro paragraph for the other paginations.

I want Google to spider the inner pages, since there are listings on there that need to be found.

You could do a head canonical tag for the page 2 onwards linking back to page one. But that says that the page is basically just the equivalent of the page one. So I don't like this option.

I prefer to do the following:
Use <meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow" /> in page 2 onwards - so there is no confusion as to which is the first page (google will not cache/index the paginations), but so PR can flow through to inner linked pages.
