Orthopaedic Surgeon

HEALTHCARE  |  INNOVATION  |  EXPERIENCE

Based in South Africa

I am a South African trained and registered Orthopaedic Surgeon with an interest and extensive experience in Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction, Orthopaedic Trauma and Foot&Ankle Surgery.

I am a fourth generation doctor in my family and to say that healing runs in my blood, would be an understatement.

My approach to orthopaedics and medicine in general is to provide real CARE, to leverage innovation to provide superior outcomes and to bring to bear decades of experience to ensure that the patient journey is as smooth as possible.

Orthopaedic Surgery in general, and Limb Reconstruction Surgery specifically, involves the use of science, technology, innovative thinking, surgical skill and artistic flair to reconstruct really complex problems. Put simply, we are the guys they call in to try and fix Humpty Dumpty.

I am blessed to love what I do and to be surrounded by a team who feel the same way.

We grow and improve constantly and are proud to be providing home grown excellence to our patients, whether local, regional or international.
