Heal Lives in Karachi with a Free Medical Camp
Transparent Hands is organizing a free medical camp in Karachi to provide healthcare services to underprivileged communities that face barriers in access to medical care. Karachi is one of the largest cities in Pakistan. However, many patients are unable to access quality healthcare. We have decided to make quality healthcare accessible to them. They will receive a comprehensive set of medical services, ranging from free check-ups and medical lab tests to ultrasound scans and medications.
Challenges:
The residents of Karachi suffer from many non-communicable diseases. According to a WHO report, the prevalence of pre-diabetes is 40%, hypertension is 18% and diabetes is 8% in Karachi.
In the bustling city of Karachi, a significant portion of the population, particularly in low-income areas, cannot afford medical treatment, leaving many health conditions undiagnosed and untreated.
Solution:
To address these health challenges, Transparent Hands is stepping in to offer a solution. Our free medical camp will provide general check-ups, diagnostic tests, and medications to deserving people of Karachi. Patients will receive screenings for chronic conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes, with free medicines provided on-site. Our team of doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and lab technicians will offer the following free medical services at our upcoming free medical camp in Karachi.
· General Check-Ups
· Gynecology Check-Ups
· Ultrasound Scans
· Blood Pressure Check-Ups
· Hepatitis B & C Screenings

Alongside medical services, a healthcare session will be conducted to raise awareness about one of the common health issues faced by the residents of Karachi. Our doctors will discuss various aspects of managing the disease.
This free medical camp will uplift Karachi’s underserved communities.
