Attock City sits on the Grand Trunk Road with Hassan Abdal and Wah on one side, and Hazro, Kamra and Fateh Jang on the other. For thousands of households in between, an ordinary medical problem turns into half a day of travel: one queue for the doctor, another across town for the blood test, and a third at a pharmacy that may or may not stock what was written.
SKMC was built around a simpler idea: the consultation, the test and the medicine belong under one roof. A doctor who can order a blood count and read it forty minutes later is a different doctor from one who has to guess and ask you to come back on Thursday.
What we practise is family medicine in the full sense — the child’s fever, the mother’s anaemia and the grandfather’s blood sugar in one set of records, seen by clinicians who come to know the household rather than the complaint.
The practical facts, without the marketing
Family Physician · MBBS · RMP · NUMS · PMDC 908775-01-M
Owner of Sardar Khan Medical Centre, and the family physician who sits the evening clinic. Previously House Physician & Surgeon at NESCOM Hospital, Islamabad, and Casualty Medical Officer at CMH Attock.
In clinic every day from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Sunday included. Those are the hours when most households in Attock can actually come — after work, after school, without losing a working day.
Three sequential clinics Monday to Saturday: a lady doctor in the morning, a paediatrician through the afternoon, and the family physician in the evening. On Sunday, internal medicine and urology sit, and Dr. Talha still takes the evening list. Dr. Zohaib Asghar joins the medical-specialist roster.
Evening clinic 4:00–9:00 PM every day, including Sunday. Ex House Physician & Surgeon, NESCOM Hospital Islamabad · Casualty Medical Officer, CMH Attock.
Daily 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM. Sunday off. The morning clinic: family medicine and gynae, with a female clinician in the room as a matter of course.
Daily 1:00 – 4:00 PM. Sunday off. Senior Specialist Registrar in paediatrics at CMH Attock. Childhood fever, chest, gut and growth.
Specialist Registrar, Medicine, PAF Hospital Islamabad. Sits Sunday clinics at SKMC for diabetes, blood pressure, chest disease and the harder adult medical problems.
Specialist Registrar, Urology, PAEC Hospital Islamabad. Sunday clinics at SKMC for stones, urinary complaints and male urology — so the district does not have to go to Rawalpindi for a first look.
Senior Registrar in Internal Medicine at Fauji Foundation Hospital. Adult medical problems — diabetes, blood pressure, chest disease and the undifferentiated cases that need a physician, not a five-minute prescription.
Dr. Talha’s PMDC number is from the clinic board. The other doctors’ PMDC numbers, and the exact clock-times of the Sunday specialist clinics, will be printed here once confirmed.
Pick a day. The current slot lights up against Asia/Karachi time. This is the same roster the desk uses — three weekday clinics in a row, then Sunday specialists plus the evening GP.
From the ordinary consultation to the laboratory bench, the ultrasound probe and the dressing trolley — the things most patients are otherwise sent to three separate places for.
A full history and examination for patients of any age. The doctor listens to the whole story, examines properly, and explains the diagnosis and the plan in the language you are comfortable in.
General practiceMore than sixty investigations on our own bench: complete blood count, blood sugar and HbA1c, renal and liver profiles, lipids, thyroid, hepatitis B and C screening, typhoid and dengue serology, urine and stool analysis. Most reports the same day.
DiagnosticsAbdominal, renal and pelvic scanning, pregnancy confirmation and follow-up, and a quick look when the examination raises a question. The images are read with the doctor in the same visit, not posted to you a week later.
DiagnosticsA twelve-lead ECG on the spot for chest pain, palpitations or breathlessness, with blood pressure and oxygen saturation. Where the tracing is worrying, we arrange onward referral immediately rather than sending you home to think about it.
DiagnosticsStructured follow-up for diabetes, hypertension, raised cholesterol, thyroid disease and asthma: scheduled HbA1c, renal function, foot and eye checks, and medication actually adjusted to the numbers rather than repeated indefinitely.
General practiceThe childhood EPI schedule, typhoid conjugate vaccine, hepatitis B, tetanus, influenza and post-exposure rabies vaccination — each entered on a card you keep and in our records.
PreventiveWound toilet and suturing, abscess incision and drainage, ingrown toenail care, ear syringing, injections and infusions, burns dressing and the routine follow-up dressings that otherwise mean a daily trip to a hospital dressing room.
ProceduresA single-sitting adult check: blood count, sugar, renal and liver function, lipids, hepatitis screening, blood pressure and ECG, gathered into one report and explained by a doctor rather than handed over as a sheet of numbers.
PreventiveMenstrual problems, anaemia, family-planning counselling and provision, pregnancy confirmation and early antenatal care, with a female staff member present for examinations as a matter of course rather than on request.
General practiceFever, cough, ear pain, diarrhoea and rashes, with particular attention to the two questions that matter most in a small child: is this pneumonia, and is this child dehydrated. Growth and weight tracked at every visit.
General practiceImmediate nebulisation for asthma, bronchiolitis and acute wheeze, with oxygen saturation monitored throughout — and, just as importantly, ten minutes teaching the correct use of an inhaler and spacer before you leave.
ProceduresSick leave, fitness and pre-employment certificates for employers, colleges and insurers. Issued on the basis of an actual examination — which is the only basis on which a certificate is worth anything.
General practiceThe common medicines stocked on site so that a prescription does not turn into a hunt across town. Every course is explained: what it is for, how long to take it, and what to do if it does not agree with you.
General practiceWhat genuinely comes through the door on an ordinary day in Attock, and how we approach it.
Fever, sore throat, cough, influenza, gastroenteritis, and the seasonal typhoid and dengue that this district sees every year. The question is always the same: is this self-limiting, or is it the one that will deteriorate on Sunday night.
Three months of tiredness. Unexplained weight loss. Dizziness. A pain that does not fit any one diagnosis. This is the harder half of general practice and the half that a rushed five-minute consultation gets wrong.
Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, gout, asthma and thyroid disease. Pakistan carries one of the heaviest diabetes burdens in the world; that demands monitoring on a schedule, not a repeat prescription every few months.
Menstrual disorders, iron-deficiency anaemia — which is very common here and very often missed — contraception, pregnancy confirmation, early antenatal care and menopausal symptoms.
Childhood fevers, coughs, ear infections, gastroenteritis and skin complaints — and the perennial judgement of whether a listless child can safely be managed at home or needs to go straight to hospital.
Immunisation, hepatitis B and C screening, early detection of diabetes, blood pressure checks for the whole household while one member is being seen, and pre-employment medicals.
Most clinics are a consulting room with a dispensary attached. You describe the problem, you are handed a slip, and you go and find a laboratory. Two days later a report appears, by which time the thread of the consultation has been lost.
Here the sample is drawn during the same visit and the result comes back to the doctor who ordered it. A great many problems can therefore be worked up and answered inside one visit instead of three — which matters most to the people who can least afford three.
Roughly one adult in four in Pakistan now lives with diabetes, and a large share of them learn about it only when the damage is already done. Hypertension is quieter still: it produces no symptom at all until it produces a stroke.
Repeating a prescription is not treatment. Patients on our chronic-disease list are placed on a schedule, and the schedule is what makes the difference between a controlled condition and a slowly worsening one.
And which we check as a matter of routine.
The real rooms at shops 39–40. Reception, consulting, IV therapy, the dressing room and the dispensary — photographed on site, then graded for the screen. Tap any frame to open it.
Attock and Kamra sit in a working district — factories, schools, transport and government offices whose staff need a clinic that will invoice an employer directly instead of asking a shift worker to pay and claim.
Direct arrangements with local employers on monthly consolidated billing. Panel list to be confirmed with SKMC.
Cashless claims where the administrator supports it. Approved list to be confirmed with SKMC.
Fitness assessment, baseline screening and the report the employer requires, usually within a single visit.
Student entry examinations, sports fitness certification and on-site health sessions for institutions.
Baseline investigations and reports commonly required for overseas employment processing.
Participation in government health schemes to be stated only once confirmed by SKMC.
Attock City is the district headquarters, and the Grand Trunk Road runs straight through it. Rawalpindi and Islamabad are around eighty kilometres away, which is close enough to be an option and far enough that using it for an ordinary problem costs a working day.
For families coming in from Hazro, Hassan Abdal, Kamra, Fateh Jang, Jand and Pindi Gheb, Attock City is the nearest place where a consultation and a laboratory sit in the same building. We run the clinic on that assumption: long enough opening hours to be worth the journey, and enough on site that the journey only has to be made once.
The fee is displayed at the desk and stated before the consultation, not discovered afterwards.
Indicative structure — actual rates to be confirmed by SKMC
Say so. Investigations can be staged in order of importance and a cheaper equivalent medicine can almost always be prescribed. Leaving without saying anything and then not taking the treatment is the most expensive outcome of all.
Weekdays: Dr. Hafsa Baig 9 AM–1 PM, Dr. Kanwal Babar 1–4 PM, Dr. Talha Mukhtar 4–9 PM. Sunday: specialist clinics (exact hours to confirm) plus Dr. Talha 4–9 PM.
Shops 39–40,
Attock City, District Attock,
Punjab, Pakistan
Street name and map pin still to be confirmed. Shop numbers are from the clinic board.
You do not need an appointment. You can walk in, give your name at the desk and wait your turn. But we are not going to pretend the wait is never long.
On a busy evening, and through dengue and influenza season, it can run past an hour. The reason is simple and we would rather state it than hide it: the doctor gives each patient the time the problem needs, and that is the same time you will be given when your turn comes.
Tuesday to Thursday, between about half past ten and noon, is usually the calmest stretch of the week.
Six to eight in the evening on any day — Dr. Talha’s list — and the Sunday specialist clinics.
