A O Clinic was founded on the 1st of May 1985 by renowned orthopaedic surgeon Dr. S.M.A. Shah.  There was a desperate need for a trauma centre in the bustling urban environment of Karachi, and our institute fills that void, dealing with a vast amount of trauma, joint reconstruction and revision surgery. A O Clinic was established initially as 40 bedded hospital with a total of 26 staff members. With the passage of time and the growing demand of trauma surgery, the hospital has expanded over the years to a 110 bed Institute. The hospital is one of the leading trauma institutes of Pakistan and it bears part of the heavy load of the country’s trauma.
