LKMWT opens Medi-Health Clinic in Surjani Town

KARACHI: The Latif Kapadia Memorial Welfare Trust (LKMWT) has opened its fourth non-profit Medi-Health Clinic in Khuda Ki Basti, Surjani Town, Karachi, with a commitment to provide affordable healthcare services to the underprivileged people in Pakistan, a statement said on Thursday.

The clinic was inaugurated by legendary writer Anwar Maqsood and Ahmed Kapadia, a devoted trustee of the trust.

Maqsood praised the high standards of medical facilities at the clinic and recalled Latif Kapadia’s (late) efforts towards improving the lives of the people and the community.

He applauded the project and emphasised the need for more initiatives like these, saying that the people of Surjani Town and surrounding areas will now have access to good medical services within their reach and at a minimal cost.

The newly-established LKMWT clinic is equipped with modern medical equipment and offers free medical consultations, diagnostic tests and medication facilities to the residents of Surjani Town and adjacent areas.

The clinic reflects the vision of Latif Kapadia (late) to enable basic healthcare facilities for the less-privileged communities. The project was completed within a year of laying the foundation stone, thanks to the sheer dedication of LKMWT and its volunteers.

Ahmed Kapadia expressed his gratitude to the donors and volunteers of LKMWT for their contributions, as well as to Gulzar Mughal for providing the land for the clinic.

He also acknowledged the efforts of other LKMWT trustees, including Sabir Sami, and vowed to continue the mission of the trust by managing this welfare project and enhancing its future medical capabilities.

The LKMWT’s fourth non-profit Medi-Health Clinic is a testament to the trust’s commitment to provide affordable healthcare services to the underprivileged communities in Pakistan and its dedication to fulfilling the vision of its late founder, Latif Kapadia.

Founded in 2007, the trust has been providing medical facilities to the underprivileged communities.

Previously, LKWMT established the world-class health clinics in Shah Faisal Colony, Khokhrapar-Malir and Quaidabad-Landhi areas. These clinics provide medical checkups, consultations and medications at only Rs40/patient. Each year, over 120,000 patients took benefit from these medi-health clinics.

LKWMT has a mission to carry forward the dream of ‘Latif Kapadia’ towards bridging the gap between the quality medical facilities and underprivileged groups of society.

The trust will continue to work for the betterment of the society by promoting education, alleviating poverty, fighting socioeconomic challenges, besides paving the way for a high quality healthcare ecosystem with the ambit of the trust.
