Please join us in welcoming our newest doctor, Dr Lindy Venter!

Dr Venter is originally from East London. She completed her studies in 2022 at the University of the Free State.
Thereafter she did her internship at Frere Hospital in East London and landed in Kroonstad for her community service at Lesedi Clinic (and Boitumelo Casualty) in 2025.

She has keen interests in internal medicine but has a special place in her heart for palliative care and oncology.

Her hobbies include reading, cooking (braaiing) and running

We look forward to seeing her bloom her within the practice!

2026 is the year for new changes, and we would like to start off by sharing some bittersweet news:
Dr Moodley, who has been at our practice since 2024, will be leaving on the 22nd of January to further her career in the Western Cape.
We wish her well on her future endeavors!

But keep watching this space! We will be welcoming a new Doctor to our team very very soon!
