Pakistan Kidney Patients Association

Pakistan Kidney Patients Association The PKPA Dialysis Center aims to provide quality dialysis for a minimal cost to the surrounding community. PKPA was founded in December 1997.

The center has a laboratory, free Out-patient Doctor, dialysis center with 15 machines, and a strong team of dedicated staff and volunteers. It was the brain child of Late Colonel Shamim, who himself was a kidney patient. A meager sum of Rs. 40,000/- was collected. A flat was rented in Chaklala III. Furniture was collected from various homes, a sign board was hung outside the three room flat and thus a free clinic was started. A doctor volunteered free services for a few hours daily. It was indeed a humble beginning. In just four years, PKPA had two doctors in the clinic treating nearly 60 to 70 patients a day. As more donations came in, PKPA was able to provide medications for free to fifty kidney transplant patients. Seeing the expenses involved and the plight of the poor patients, PKPA started thinking of a 'Dialysis Centre'. By March 2004 PKPA had procured three dialysis machines through donations. Needing a bigger place, PKPA moved to Harley Street, Rawalpindi. In two more years there was an addition of two dialysis machines, a Laboratory, Ultra Sound facility and two small ambulances. There was an increasing need for staff and thus funds. The Harley Street Clinic also fell short in space, therefore, in May 2007 the Association shifted to Cantonment General Hospital (CGH) by the kind courtesy of Medical Superintendent CGH and the Station Commander Rawalpindi. It was a great day when PKPA shifted to its own Centre. It is a purpose built, state of the art, thirty million outfit. PKPA started its operation in the new place on 14 August 2009.
