Services at Stilbaai Medies
This medical practice has a qualified sister assisting the doctors with various medical procedures. She takes the patient through a pre-consultation procedure in the treatment room, noting the results on the patient’s electronic health record. She typically measures the blood pressure, weighs the patient, takes the temperature and also asks for a urine sample if necessary. The results are thus immediately available for the doctor to peruse by the time the doctor sees the patient.
Minor procedures that are done in the treatment room includes stitching of wounds, excision of minor skin lesions, diathermy, limb casts, ECG’s, as well as nebulization.
Although they can handle most of the general cases, some of the patients will obviously need help from specialists. In those cases, they have a good referral relationship with specialists in the Mosselbay, George and also Knysna areas.
Furthermore, these general practitioners do blood tests as well as any other tests necessary for identifying certain diseases. Their practice is opposite the CareWell Sub-acute Hospital where there is an X-ray facility.
They believe in preventative care as well as lifestyle advice.

Stilbaai Medies – Huisdokters en Terapeute
Stilbaai Medies is ‘n private algemene mediese praktyk met twee ervare huisdokters. Gelisensieerd om algemene gesondheidsorg in Stilbaai en omgewing te beoefen, is die praktyk oop vir alle plaaslike inwoners, besoekers, vakansiegangers en so meer.
Hulle is in ‘n nuwe gebou op die perseel van die Fynbos Leefstyl Landgoed oorkant die CareWell Subakute hospitaal. Die gebou bestaan uit twee dokter-spreekkamers, die fisioterapeut-kamer, ‘n ontvangsarea, badkamer (ingerig vir gestremde persone) en ook ‘n behandelingskamer.
Hierdie mediese praktyk het ‘n gekwalifiseerde suster wat die dokters bystaan met verskeie mediese take, prosedures en so meer. Voor konsultasie neem sy die pasiënt na die prosedurekamer waar sy al die observasies neem en op die pasient se elektroniese lêer stoor. Hierdie gegewens is dan dadelik tot die dokter se beskikking.
Dienste by Stilbaai Medies
Klein prosedures wat in die prosedurekamer gedoen word, sluit in wondhegtings met steke, uitsny van velletsels, aanwending van gips, nebulisering van pasiënte en EKG-analise.
Alhoewel hulle meeste algemene gevalle kan hanteer, is daar soms pasiënte wat die hulp van ‘n spesialis benodig. Hulle het ‘n goedgevestigde verwysingsnetwerk van spesialiste in Mosselbaai, George en Knysna.
Verder doen hierdie algemene praktisyns ook bloedtoetse en so ook ander soorte toetse wat nodig is om siektes te identifiseer. Hulle verwys ook pasiente na die ‘n X-straal fasiliteit by die CareWell Subakute Hospitaal oorkant die praktyk.
Hulle glo in voorkomende sorg en leefstyladvies eerder as onmiddellike ingrypende behandeling of operasies. Dus sal hulle eerder raadgee oor eetgewoontes en oefening en so ook waarsku teen die skade wat gewoontevormende medisynes kan aanrig.
