Physiotherapists
Our physiotherapists are passionate about helping people get back on their feet, be it in the hospital or the community. After a lean 2016, we are back to three in 2017. For more information on rehabilitation services in a rural area, see http://www.ruralrehab.co.za

Chief Physiotherapist Hlumi grew up in Cape Town and studied at UWC. She did her community service in KwaZulu Natal and worked at the rural Emmaus Hospital, before joining us in late 2016 as our Chief Physio. Areas of physio that particularly interest her are orthopaedics and neuro, with patients who have spinal cord injuries a special group.

Duncan Miller
Physiotherapist Duncan graduated from UCT and did his community service at neighbouring Madwaleni Hospital. After a short stint in private, he's come back to rural, rejoining us in late 2016. The patients he most enjoys treating are adults with neurological disabilities. Interests away from work range from music - he plays the piano and violin - to rock climbing. |

Kara Boshoff
Physiotherapist Kara has joined us for community service this year, after graduating from Stellenbosch. She's interested in adult neuro patients, but also enjoys the children. ICU is a field that she also enjoys (but won't see much of here!). She's excited to be on the Wild Coast, where she can enjoy the beach, hiking, running or simply sitting with a good book adn the view during her time off. |
