About Artificial Leg Karachi
This site and this service are about one thing: artificial legs for people in Karachi, and for those who travel here from interior Sindh, Balochistan and further. Everything here is written to help a family make a good decision, whether or not they ever become our patient.
What is Artificial Leg Karachi?
Artificial Leg Karachi is a prosthetic leg service operating from two clinics in Karachi, at Gulshan-e-Iqbal and DHA. Legs are assessed, cast, fitted and followed up by Ummad Shafique Mughal, a consultant orthotist and prosthetist who holds a BS (Hons) in Prosthetic and Orthotic Sciences from PIPOS, Khyber Medical University. Calls and WhatsApp are answered 24/7.
Six commitments that apply to every patient
A free first assessment
With no obligation to order. You leave with a recommendation, a price range and a home programme.
A test socket, always
No final socket is made until a clear test socket has been tried and corrected on your stump.
A written, itemised quotation
Every part named by type, maker and model, with what is included and how long the price is held.
Training as part of the leg
An agreed number of gait training sessions comes with every new leg.
One prosthetist throughout
The person who assesses you takes the cast, fits the socket, sets the alignment and sees you at follow up.
Reachable at any hour
Calls and WhatsApp are answered 24/7, from Karachi, from the provinces and from abroad.
What we will not do
- We will not cast a stump that has not healed, however far you have travelled.
- We will not skip the test socket to deliver faster.
- We will not sell a frail person a costly knee that they cannot use safely.
- We will not present a used or refurbished part as new.
- We will not publish patient stories, ratings or photographs that are not real and given with permission.
- We will not tell you a leg is the answer when a wheelchair and good transfers would serve you better.
- We will not treat infections or prescribe medicines. Those belong to your doctor, and we will send you to them.

How the information here is written and checked
Every clinical page on this site is written and reviewed by Ummad Shafique Mughal, and carries the date of its last review. The content reflects established prosthetic practice and what we see daily in clinic in Karachi.
Price figures are indicative ranges for the stated year, kept wide on purpose, and are not quotations. Travel distances and times are approximate. Where a question is medical, we say so and direct you to a doctor. Where it is religious, we direct you to a scholar.
We are not tied to any manufacturer. Brand and product names appear only to describe products. No page on this site is sponsored.
This site covers artificial legs only. If you need a brace, an upper limb prosthesis or another device, ask us when you call.
If you find an error, or something that is unclear, please tell us through the contact page. We correct mistakes promptly.
