Established in 2007, the Institute of Kidney Diseases (IKD) is the first specialized tertiary care hospital in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, serving as a successful model for other specialties to emulate.

The remarkable success of IKD is attributed to the visionaries who identified the need for such an institution, the senior clinicians who played a pivotal role in its development and operation, and the invaluable contributions of the medical and auxiliary staff who have been instrumental throughout this journey.

The primary objective of IKD is not only to provide state-of-the-art facilities for patient care but also to serve as a hub for training medical professionals, thereby enhancing patient care. Moreover, the institution is committed to raising public awareness about the prevention of kidney-related ailments.

The extraordinary growth of nearly 700% in outpatient visits over the past decade is a testament to the public's confidence in our performance. IKD offers a comprehensive range of services, including Urology, Kidney Transplantation, and Nephrology.

IKD takes pride in having trained a record number of specialist doctors and medical staff in Urology and Nephrology, including professionals from Afghanistan. Additionally, the institution boasts a significant number of medical publications, a remarkable achievement considering the demanding clinical workload.

With generous support from the government, IKD provides free dialysis and kidney transplant services, a landmark achievement in assisting underprivileged patients. However, given the government's limited resources, we aim to generate additional funding without burdening the economically disadvantaged. In this regard, the role of philanthropists is highly appreciated.

Our vision is to transform IKD into a center of excellence, not only in patient care and disease prevention but also as a leader in medical research and training. A key milestone in this journey is achieving the standards set by the Joint Commission International (JCI), which remains a focal point as we strive for continuous improvement.
