Hospital Overview
TKC is a not-for-profit specialized hospital providing quality care to patients suffering from kidney disease. TKC opened its door to the public in 1985 with a small dialysis unit consisting of just two machines. Today, TKC provides comprehensive quality renal care to patients suffering from kidney and bladder problems. It has 100 in-patient beds, four operating theatres, and intensive care unit (with ventilators) for both adults and paediatrics, and a full range of urological, nephrological and transplant services.
Patients suffering from kidney diseases are at risk of having other diseases as well, therefore the centre also offers non-invasive cardiology services as well as gastroenterology services with endoscopic facility. Consulting clinics provide services in almost all specialties including nephrology, urology, transplant, cardiology, haematology, pulmonology, gastroenterology, general surgery, neurology, diabetology, paediatrics, physiotherapy and nutrition.
Being a community project, TKC has also undertaken the task of educating the masses about common renal ailments which, when left unattended, lead to drastic, life threatening complications. It is very active in educating and spreading knowledge about health and disease prevention at all levels of society including schools, workplaces and public places. It continuously engages in activities and events whereby education and awareness is maximized.

CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE
The Kidney Centre Post Graduate Training Institute (TKC-PGTI), commonly referred to as The Kidney Centre (TKC), is a not-for-profit hospital dedicated to delivering outstanding care and assistance to patients afflicted by kidney diseases. Since its inception in 1985, TKC has specialized in providing comprehensive, high-quality care to underserved needy patients. Our primary goal is to improve the quality of life for individuals affected by kidney ailments through advanced medical treatment, pioneering research, and outreach initiatives within the community. With a committed team of healthcare professionals, state-of-the-art technology, and a compassionate ethos, we strive each day to realize this overarching mission.
In Pakistan, millions of people are suffering from The Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) due to late diagnosis, kidney stone disease and increasing number of patients suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure who are at risk of having other diseases as well. Unfortunately, the cost of dialysis treatments, medications, and associated healthcare expenses can be overwhelming for many patients and their families. We provide free or subsidized financial assistance to dialysis patients to cover the costs of their treatments and essential medications. Your support has helped us provide critical care to countless patients, and we are immensely grateful for your generosity.
TKC is always on the forefront of providing quality healthcare treatment to deserving and needy patients. During the last financial year (from July 2022 to June 2023), more than Rs. 560 million was spent on the treatment of almost 100,000 needy patients.
As we mark our 40th Anniversary, the hospital is in need for both expansion and replacement of aging medical infrastructure. Our immediate plans include reconstructing our present and inadequate ICU and our two in-patient wards. However this critical capital expenditure is only possible if the necessary funds are available through the generosity of our constant and generous donors. Therefore, we are reaching out to philanthropists to help us in our ongoing commitment to save precious lives. Your generosity will help us ensure that no one has to forgo or delay their treatment owing to financial constraints.
