Getting to Karachi from Turbat
By air, flights connect Turbat with Karachi and are much the easiest option for a patient with a fresh stump. By road, the journey runs down to the coastal highway and east to Karachi, and takes most of a day; plan stops and carry water.
Heat and dust
Kech summers are very hot and dusty. Sweat inside the socket or liner and dust in the foot, lock or valve are the everyday problems. Take the liner off at midday to dry, keep a spare, and clean dust out of the moving parts daily. Simple, tough parts are easier to keep working.
Fitting the visits between two dates
Tell us the day you arrive and the day you must leave. We fit the assessment, casting, test socket and fitting between them, and keep a spare day for any adjustment the test socket shows. If the stump is still settling, a temporary leg lets you go home walking and return later for the final socket.
Follow-up from Kech
Most questions after you go home can be answered from WhatsApp photos and videos. If a visit is needed, we plan it to be as short as possible.
