Dude this is Karachi, due to internal political issues the city is being neglected
Doesn't represent other major cities

What about Balochistan ?? And other province ??
And health care is too big a issue to be neglected , it's enough to protest or file case in Court

The situation is not good as is. However, in past few years things gave started to improve, especially in the public health care sector. I've seen hospitals being renovated and improved on district and tehsil levels. Even subtehsils.
Ambulance service is okay. You have charities like Edhi foundation and some religious organizations filling in the gaps. Obviously private paid services are available.
However, the gap is still there and no amount of sugar coating can change that. After all, we are a poor country with all the issues that come with it.

That's what i was expecting , someone to share experience instead of ranting done by some other member .
Can you provide some figures about average response time of ambulance etc , i can't find concrete info on google .
Also how many road accident are left unattended ??

I don't actually have any specific details on the national response time but I assume it varies according to time and place.
I live in a rural area and the response time here is usually around 10-15 mins. Some places it maybe 20mins if they are further away from the 1122 (emergency service station).
I've never heard of an accident being left unattended. Obviously, if it happened in a far off place with no one to report, it would be a different matter. As far as I know, if you call they come.
I know multiple people who either had a medical emergency (heart attack for instance) or in one case got bitten by a snake, they used the emergency ambulance service provided by the government. It usually got there within half an hour. I think it's free of charge on the point of sale.
The government has been working on improving this, I think there was a news here on this forum about the government deciding to establish a single helpline for all emergencies like 911 after that rape incident.
All in all, I'm hoping for further improvement in medical services by the government because they seem to be focused on it. They are trying to introduce universal health insurance. Don't know how far that has gotten though.
