Answer: While walk-ins are welcome, we encourage patients to book appointments in advance to reduce waiting times and ensure the doctor can dedicate enough time to each consultation. Booking ahead also helps us prepare for specific needs, such as prenatal scans or chronic condition reviews. However, urgent cases will always be prioritized.

Answer: Dr. Shadung’s practice accepts most major South African medical aid schemes. Patients are advised to confirm with our reception team whether their plan is covered before their visit. For those without medical aid, affordable private consultation rates are available, ensuring that quality healthcare remains accessible to the community.

Answer: To make your first visit smooth, please bring:

Your ID or medical aid card

Any previous medical records or prescriptions

A list of current medications you’re taking

For expectant mothers: ante-natal records or scan results

This information helps Dr. Shadung understand your health history and provide tailored, effective care from the very first consultation.
