Abstract

Cholera remains a determined risk in many urban areas of Pakistan and it due to unsafe drinking water, improper sanitation, and late reporting. This study aims to assess the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) regarding cholera among registered healthcare professionals (HCPs) working in private clinics of District West Karachi. A cross-sectional survey among 120 professionals discloses moderate knowledge levels, a generally positive attitude, but variable practices particularly in patient health education and case reporting to authorities. Addressing these gaps through continuous training and integration with public health infrastructure is essential.
