What Type of Medical Doctor Are You Looking For?


If there is one area that makes our medical practices unique, it is our commitment to providing comprehensive healthcare through various practices of medicine that are attainable in one place. In essence, this means that patients can immediately access a portfolio of medical services and doctors to address aches, sprains, illnesses, and routine check-ups to emergencies and specialised care without having to travel from one place to another. Some of the many types of doctors in our network include:


  • General Practitioners: Also known as GPs, these doctors are typically your first point of contact for many health conditions. Since these professionals consult with many patients daily, they are needed to fulfil various functions, including general check-ups and treatment of common illnesses, cuts, bruises and more. However, because of their general medical expertise, they may also treat more serious conditions.

  • Chronic Disease Management: Chronic illness may be defined broadly as conditions that affect a patient for one year or more, and that need constant medication and treatment. These conditions are sometimes curable but need medication and doctor-patient treatment. Often, a GP is able to assist with these treatments. Chronic diseases may include conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer and more.

  • At Intercare, we offer a convenient solution for bedridden patients. An online, virtual consultation allows our doctors to consult with a patient, advise on daily care and treatment, and even have medication delivered to your door. 

  • Radiologists: These specialists are trained in diagnosing and treating injuries and diseases with the use of medical imaging (radiology) procedures. These tests include X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) and ultrasound.  

  • Audiologists: With a focus on diagnosing and managing conditions related to hearing, these healthcare professionals are qualified to fit and dispense hearing aids. In addition, their role is to prevent and manage hearing loss, tinnitus, and balance system dysfunction. These specialists work with patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly.

  • Optometrists: Although an ophthalmologist can perform vital optical operations, an optometrist can assist with your optical health. With an annual eye examination, they can inspect for signs or symptoms of eyesight deterioration, pre-emptively diagnose a problem and refill glasses prescriptions.

  • Pathologists: Although they often function behind the scenes in a lab, these specialists are involved in the diagnosis of a disease. They study samples of human tissues, fluids, and organs to detect possible viruses, bacteria, or other infectious agents. Their role is to further monitor ongoing medical conditions and help guide treatment.  
  •  
  • Physiotherapists: An orthopaedic surgeon may refer treatment for injuries such as sprains, torn ligaments, and dislocation to a physiotherapist. This professional will ensure that injuries are treated and repaired, exercising, and stretching the affected areas and preparing for complete recuperation in the long term.
  •  
  • Psychologists: Mental health issues are at alarming rates in South Africa today. Causes vary from poverty, traumatic experiences and living conditions to irresponsible lifestyles and toxic substance abuse.

  • This was augmented by the pandemic, where individuals suffered from anxiety and depression with the fear of uncertainty and social and economic disruptions. Intercare’s interactive online care and one-on-one sessions with traumatised patients offer an ideal support platform.

 

  • Dentists: Overall health includes many facets, and oral health must not be excluded. Our dental health professionals range from oral hygienists and practising dentists to specialised professions, such as orthodontics, endodontics, paediatric dentistry, oral hygienic dentistry and more. Moreover, Intercare’s dental professionals are fully qualified and trained to deal with patients who suffer from dentophobia. We provide all our patients, young and old, with comfortable surroundings and an inviting atmosphere.

 

With these and more specialities available, you can be assured to find the care that you need at your nearest Intercare. Our services further extend to include sub-acute rehabilitation hospitals, day hospitals and women’s health and fertility services to ensure that medical care is as accessible and convenient as possible.
