KIND-R:
Pakistan's Largest
Neurological Hospital and Rehabilitation Center
World-class neuro-rehab care, free of cost, in a country where it has never existed.
Established by HHRD, the Karachi Institute of Neurological Diseases & Rehabilitation (KIND-R) is the largest comprehensive development of its kind in Pakistan with a long-term vision, bringing together diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation state-of-the-art facilities and services under one roof, at no cost to patients during its inception since start of this year, 2026.
The burden on the healthcare system that KIND-R is lessening is appreciable.
Seven million Pakistanis (majority being children), live with disabilities; 70% of districts have no rehabilitation services at all, and until KIND-R opened, not a single comprehensive neuro-rehab hospital existed in the entire country.
In the first six months following its soft launch on December 16, 2025, KIND-R’s 42,000-square-foot Phase I facility delivered 20,000+ free patient visits, while expanding capacity from 40 to more than 300 patients served daily.

This is just the beginning of a 7-phase, $60M+ vision to bring specialized neurological care to communities across Pakistan.
