I am a plastic and reconstructive surgeon in private practice in the city of George. My rooms are located at the George Surgical Centre, which is a state of the art medical facility and day hospital in the Garden Route. I provide a service at the George Surgical Centre, the George MediClinic, and in Mossel Bay at the Life Bayview Hospital as well as the Vidamed Day Hospital. As we are based in a smaller city I am exposed to a broad spectrum of plastic and reconstructive demands, including trauma surgery, cancer reconstructive surgery, as well as a variety of cosmetic surgery procedures. I am comfortable with the full range of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery and I regularly attend local and International congresses to stay up to date with the latest techniques. My clinical interests include reconstructive microsurgery, and cleft lip and palate surgery.
God has blessed me with the most amazing family. Grethe, my wife is my best friend, my rock-solid support and the love of my life. I know that without her sacrifices, support, prayers and love I would not be where I am today. We have a daughter, Christi, and a son, Ben. And We believe that this practice belongs to God and that He has a specific plan for us in George. It is therefore our goal and desire to serve, honour, and glorify Jesus Christ through whatever we do and to be allowed to serve our community through Him.
