Welcome to the future. Welcome to Family
Dr Biren Valodia
Chief Marketing Officer: Mediclinic Southern Africa
At Mediclinic, our patients are important to us. In fact, we’ve developed our entire business model around one simple truth: that if we continue to put you at the centre of everything we do, we can achieve great things. Excellent outcomes. A sustainable business. A culture of innovation expertise.
Mediclinic Family has gone digital. Why? Because you are going digital. On your phone, tablet, laptop, even desktop – the ways in which our patients need and use healthcare is changing. And we are changing too, to ensure you’re able to access our continuum of expert care from anywhere, at any time.
In this issue, comedian Riaad Moosa shares his innovative approach to overcoming the coronavirus pandemic. We hear from the family of little Elle Arendse, whose world has opened up after successful cochlear implant surgery at Mediclinic Cape Gate, and from Stefan Dreyer, who survived a fractured neck thanks to expert care at Mediclinic Panorama.
There’s more: we look at the positives of a life under lockdown, showcase the ways in which surgery is embracing technology, present the faces of our brave frontline staff, and answer frequently asked questions about the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine.
On that note, we encourage you to take a moment out to choose a convenient day and time to get your COVID-19 vaccination. To help the National Department of Health in its countrywide rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine, Mediclinic is operating more than 30 COVID-19 vaccination centres across South Africa. The Mediclinic Vaccination Booking portal now allows direct access to booking at any of these facilities. For more information on how to register, click here.
Mediclinic’s continuum of care is evolving. From world-class emergency care and renal clinics in rural communities, to a growing network of same-day surgery centres and standalone, all-in-one oncology units – there’s more to Mediclinic than ever. And at the centre of all that innovation, is you.
Welcome to the future. Where family comes first.
