Artificial legs for Karachi, Sindh and Balochistan

Below knee legs start from Rs 80,000 and above knee legs from Rs 150,000. Imported knees and feet raise the price: a fully imported below knee leg can pass Rs 900,000, and an above knee leg with a microprocessor knee goes well past Rs 2,500,000. The free assessment tells you where in the range your leg sits.

Yes. We examine the stump, ask about your walking, work and home, and explain the options and the likely price. There is no charge and no obligation to order anything.

Because the knee, the foot and the suspension can each cost more than the rest of the leg put together. Two below knee legs can look alike and differ several times in price because one has an imported carbon fibre foot and a vacuum socket.

Usually once the wound has fully healed and the swelling has settled, which is often six to eight weeks after surgery and sometimes longer after a diabetic amputation. A temporary leg can sometimes start earlier. We check this at the assessment rather than guess on the phone.

Most legs take three to five visits: the assessment, casting, a test socket fitting, then the final fitting with walking training, plus follow-ups as the stump settles. Hip level legs and legs for both sides usually need more.

Some pressure and tiredness are normal in the first weeks while the skin toughens. Sharp pain, red marks that have not faded twenty minutes after taking the leg off, or any broken skin are not normal. Call us and we will adjust the socket.

Every assessment, casting and fitting takes place at our Karachi clinic in Gulshan-e-Iqbal. Each city page explains how far it is and how to plan the trip. Call first and we will plan the visits around your travel dates.

Often, if the stump is ready and the patient can stay in the city for the visits. Tell us your travel dates when you call. Sometimes a second short trip is needed for adjustments once the leg has been worn for a few weeks.

Yes. A son, daughter or brother abroad can handle the questions, photos and the written estimate on WhatsApp. The patient still comes in person for the assessment, the casting and the fitting.

Yes. Send photos of the stump and your surgeon's notes first, so we can tell you whether the stump is ready and how many days to plan for. Most below knee legs need three to five visits, so allow one to two weeks in Karachi, and longer for above knee and hip level legs.

Yes. Many users stand for qiyam with the leg on and use a chair or sit for ruku and sajda when the knee does not bend far enough. For wudu, a waterproof leg or a quick way to take the leg off makes life easier. Our namaz and wudu guide goes through it step by step.

The socket usually needs changing first, often within one to three years in the early years as the stump shrinks. Knees and feet commonly last three to five years with sensible care. We check the whole leg at every follow-up.

Not with an ordinary leg; water ruins liners, feet and knees. A waterproof shower leg is made for exactly that, and we build them for patients who need to stand in the shower or walk on wet floors.
