Will I need to travel to see a specialist?
When we asked members in Johannesburg if they typically need to travel to see specialists, they replied...
"Yes, there are a good number of medical specialists in Johannesburg. People in Johannesburg have access to a wide range of medical specialists, including general practitioners, specialists in internal medicine, cardiologists, neurologists, oncologists, and many more. For highly specialized medical care, people in Johannesburg can go to one of the many private hospitals or clinics in the city, such as Netcare Milpark Hospital, Life Fourways Hospital, or the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital. These hospitals and clinics offer a wide range of specialized medical services, including advanced diagnostic imaging, robotic surgery, and other cutting-edge treatments," commented one expat who made the move to Johannesburg, South Africa.
