Areas We Serve
Dr. Shahid Islam Dental Clinic is based in DHA Phase 5, Karachi. Many patients live nearby in DHA and Clifton; many others travel across the city because the treatment they need is specialist care. This page explains where the clinic is, who it serves, and how to plan a visit that fits Karachi traffic and your working day.
Our base: DHA Phase 5
The clinic's address is Office #102, Plot #12-C, 35th Commercial Street, Tauheed Commercial Area, DHA Phase 5, Karachi. Tauheed Commercial is one of the established commercial pockets of DHA, with clinics, pharmacies and everyday services along the street, so the visit combines easily with other errands in the area. The exact location is pinned on the map on our contact page, and the clinic's own website repeats the address on its areas we serve page.
Phase 5 sits in the heart of DHA, so patients from the other DHA phases reach the clinic without crossing the whole city. If you are coming for a series of appointments, for example root canal visits or braces adjustments, that convenience adds up over the course of treatment.
Clifton: our nearest neighbours
Clifton adjoins DHA, and a large share of the clinic's patients come from Clifton blocks and the streets around them. For these patients the clinic functions as a neighbourhood practice: close enough for a quick review appointment, an emergency visit in the evening session, or bringing children for check-ups without a major expedition. If you live in Clifton and have been travelling far for dentistry, it is worth knowing that specialist endodontic care, implants and orthodontics are available this close to home.
Patients from across Karachi
Beyond DHA and Clifton, patients travel from across Karachi, and they usually come for one of three reasons. The first is specialisation: root canal treatment by an endodontist is not available in every neighbourhood, and difficult teeth are referred or self-referred here from all over the city. The second is the female dentist on the team: families who prefer a woman dentist will travel for that choice. The third is timing: evening sessions from 4:30 PM to 9:00 PM mean a patient can finish a working day anywhere in Karachi and still make an appointment, and the Saturday afternoon session catches those whose weekdays are full.
If you are travelling from further away, a little planning helps. Book ahead rather than arriving unannounced, mention when you book that you are travelling so longer treatments can be scheduled sensibly, and bring any previous X-rays or treatment records with you, in hand or on your phone, so nothing is repeated unnecessarily. Our complete patient guide explains what a first visit involves, which helps you know what to expect before a longer journey.

Karachi traffic is heaviest in the early evening, so allow extra time if your appointment is at the start of a weekday session, and keep the clinic's number, +92 344 212 3913, in your phone in case you are delayed. For treatment that runs over several visits, the team will try to group appointments in a way that respects your travel, and will tell you honestly which stages cannot be combined.
