Pakistan’s Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation (SIUT) has taken a significant step in modern healthcare delivery by launching the country’s first robotic-surgery web series, aimed at public awareness, medical education, and transparency around advanced surgical procedures.
Alongside this digital initiative, SIUT has also expanded its dialysis infrastructure in Karachi, opening what officials describe as one of the city’s largest dialysis facilities. The expansion is intended to increase treatment capacity for patients with chronic kidney disease and reduce pressure on existing centres.
Healthcare professionals say the introduction of robotic surgery reflects SIUT’s continued focus on adopting cutting-edge medical technology, while the dialysis expansion underscores its long-standing commitment to free and accessible care. The dual initiative combines innovation with service delivery, strengthening Pakistan’s public healthcare landscape.
Officials noted that such steps are part of broader efforts to modernise medical services, improve training, and ensure that advanced treatment options are available to patients regardless of their financial background.
