The people behind the care
Board-certified specialists, nurses, radiographers, pharmacists and laboratory scientists — supported by a welcoming reception team.
Names and photographs to follow
The roles below describe how the Centre is staffed. Individual names, portraits and professional registration numbers are deliberately not published here until each clinician has confirmed their own entry — publishing a clinician's credentials is their call to make, not ours.
Send the confirmed details and portraits and they will be added to this page.

How We Work
One record, one team
Because the Centre runs on Afya Hub, everyone treating you is looking at the same record — the physician who saw you last month, the sonographer scanning you today, and the pharmacist dispensing this afternoon.
It means fewer repeated questions, fewer repeated tests, and a clinician who can see what has already been tried before suggesting the next thing.
Consultations in whichever language you are most comfortable in.
Scans and laboratory results appear in your Afya Hub record.
Teleconsultations are staffed by MacWish clinicians, not a call centre.
