General Practitioners in Norwood, Johannesburg

GPs manage a broad range of day-to-day health concerns, including infections, minor injuries, skin complaints, digestive issues, and ongoing management of chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes and asthma. They also provide vaccinations, health check-ups and referrals to specialists when further investigation is needed.

A first consultation generally includes a discussion of your medical history and current symptoms, followed by a physical examination if needed. The practitioner may order blood tests, scans or other investigations, and will discuss possible next steps, which could include medication, lifestyle advice or referral to a specialist.

Many medical aids require a referral letter from a general practitioner before covering a visit to a specialist, so it's worth checking your scheme's rules. A GP consultation can help determine whether specialist input is appropriate for your situation.
