Since its inception in 1963, the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) has played a pivotal role in caring for patients with heart disease in Pakistan. NICVD is the first tertiary cardiac care institute in South Asia as well as the flagship facility for cardiology in Pakistan with a focus on superior care for patients, education and training for medical professionals, and research and development in cardiology.NICVD caters to the cardiovascular needs of a vast majority of patients from all provinces of Pakistan as well as Afghan refugees and patients from other neighboring countries. It is responsible for training the bulk of local cardiac physicians, nurses and paramedics throughout the country.

Today I went to NICVD and I was impressed to see the arrangements there because of COVID-19. No one is allowed to enter without reason or prior appointment. After entrance help desks are available which guide you for the rest of procedure and at every step courteous staff is present to help the patients. In short it was good experience and Management is really doing great job in such difficult times of COVID-19 .

I have found this place very interesting. They are very restrict in their policies and similarly very quick in taking care of patients. I would recommend this place for all the heart paitients who dont want to pay nonsense charges in private hospitals. Its almost and i would completly free and trust me they take very good care of paitients

National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases KarachiThe state of the art hospital in Karachi Sindh.It benefits the rich and poor people of Pakistan.Newly introduced hospital for heart diseases. The good step taken by the Government of Sindh for the people of Pakistan. It has highly qualified doctors and staff. It is free of cost. A better step taken by Govt of Sindh.The Government should also construct hospital like NICVD Karachi in other cities of Sindh too. So that people of Sindh can be able to get health facilities on their door steps.They should always maintain there quality care facilities for people.Allah will give you reward for this. INSHA ALLAH

Government section of this hospital is verse than third class hospital. Here appointments for specialist are given in months like if you want appointment of a specialist they will give you time in months but if you gave source you can meet at same day without any appointment. Same if you are suggested for operation they will ask you give us file and we will call you 2 to 4 days before operation. After that you have to wait for years like one of my relative still waiting for call from hospital. This is very irritating situation.

Its a semi government institute providing treatment for heart diseases in children and adults. It has a cath lab and other advanced facilities. However, its very overburdened hospital so patient care is compromised. There are 2-3 patients on a single bed in the pediatric ward. The cost for heart surgeries is high for poor patients. The federal and provincial governments must pay attention for the well being of the poor masses.

Review №22

The NICVD is one of very few Pakistan peoples partys Sindh government did great work on..Right now they are advance than ever, but there still is a lack of beds in paeds general ward, so the patients have to take patience and share the bed with one other, but I must say most of the staff especially in paeds department is fast, hardworking and dedicated..So, 3 stars for the institution of NICVD and one extra for the staff..

Pakistans first and foremost the largest and the most visited hospital related to heart diseases.The treatment and equipments are good but only if you have the strong personal approach and sources in the hospital they treat the patient well otherwise very ordinary style for looking after the patients..Or else one chooses to get treatment on self finance bases then they pay a bit more attention.

NICVD is the hospital for the general public of Karachi. Since there are very few hospitals to care for heart paitients in Karachi it is recommended that if you dont have the money you should go to this hospital in case of emergency.You will get immediate Care and chances of getting immediate help are very high. It is well equipped and the general ward is affordable.It has its own car parking and labs.

Review №53

FOUNDERGravely concerned about the future of cardiology in a nascent country, Dr. Ali Muhammad Kasim returned to Pakistan with a will to help those in need. He joined Jinnah Central Hospital (JCH) in 1948 after serving in the Second World War in British India and acquiring his postgraduate training from the UK and the USA.With his exceptional vision for growth, Dr. Kasim helped to elevate JCH to Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) and established the library at Dow Medical College. In 1963, after successful endeavors to collect funding from foreign organizations and personal contacts, Dr. Kasim achieved the first step towards his dream when the foundation stone of National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) was laid by former President Field Marshall Ayub Khan.Unfortunately, Dr. Kasim did not live to see the eventual outcome of the seeds he had sown as he died in 1964. He was however, posthumously made the first Executive Director of NICVD (1963-1964) and awarded the Sitara-e-Khidmat for his tireless efforts for his country.Since its inception in 1963, the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) has played a pivotal role in caring for patients with heart disease in Pakistan. NICVD is the first tertiary cardiac care institute in South Asia as well as the flagship facility for cardiology in Pakistan with a focus on superior care for patients.HISTORYEmerging from the small Central Heart Clinic in Ward 10 of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) in 1956, National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases has been the primary heart-care provider for Pakistanis for over 50 years.With support from the Government of Pakistan, USAID and the Japanese Government, NICVD became a fully functional tertiary cardiac-care centre on 14th August, 1971. For the following eight years, NICVD remained a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) but in 1979 it was nationalized by the Government of Pakistan and became an Autonomous Body under the Federal Ministry of Health.The present Governing Body of NICVD comes under the Government of Sindh with the Honorable Chief Minister of Sindh as the Chairman of the Board of Governors. The Executive Director of NICVD maintains the role of Secretary of the Board of Governors and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute and Chairman of the Academic Faculty.

Review №56

Director NICVDIts matter of utter shame and sheer disappointment to see the pathetic service and highly disappointing behavior of your staff. You can certainly give thousands of reasons of lack of budget (though its not even true as you have ample resources) but there can be no reason of poor behavior of your staff towards already stressed patients and their attendants.

NICVD is a Good public health service provider in the field of cardiovascular diseases, and the fees for OPD (Rs. 50/-) and tests ECG Rs.50/- & ECHO Rs.500/-) and other procedures are also very low as compared to Private hospitals like Tabba, Liaquat National & AKHU. you cant ignore the affordability when compare services quality. in this cost no one can beat them. They also provide medicines to patients with only Rs.50/- for whole weeks medicines.NICVD its a distinguished hospital for Heart disease, patients come here from across the country.
