Patient Information

A little preparation. A calmer visit.

Useful information to help you plan your appointment at our Rondebosch practice.

What to bring

Bring your identification, medical aid card if applicable, referral letter if provided, and a list of your current medicines and allergies. Existing test results and details of previous treatments can be helpful.

For a skin examination, avoid heavy make-up where possible. If bringing a child, a parent or legal guardian should attend.

Intlawulo · Consultation fees

A 30-minute specialist dermatology consultation is R1,560, effective 1 March 2026. A R560 booking confirmation charge secures the appointment and is deducted from the consultation fee when you attend.

Procedures, laboratory tests and clinical skin therapies may have separate costs. The practice will explain proposed charges before you proceed.

Medical aid

Discovery Health Premier A Option members are billed directly at contracted rates. Patients on other medical aid schemes are charged at Discovery Premier A rates and must settle the account by credit or debit card on the day of consultation.

The practice provides a detailed statement for reimbursement claims. You remain responsible for confirming your benefits, referral requirements and reimbursement directly with your medical aid scheme.

Ukurhoxisa · Cancellations

Please give at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule so that the appointment can be offered to another patient.

For private patients, the R560 booking confirmation charge is forfeited for late cancellations or non-attendance. Medical aid patients may be charged in line with scheme rules, or the full fee may be charged to the patient account.

Your privacy

Medical information is discussed privately with your clinical team. Do not submit medical history, ID numbers or skin photographs through the website.

For emergencies, contact emergency services or attend your nearest emergency department; this website is not monitored for urgent care.
