The Dr Omar practising in Polokwane is Dr Jameel Omar, a physician in internal medicine whose published core competency is pulmonology, meaning lung and respiratory medicine. His rooms are in central Polokwane rather than inside a hospital.

Local channels

The hospital group lists the same telephone number twice on his profile, which is not an error to work around: there is one line into the rooms, so if it is engaged there is no alternative number to try.

Address

That distinction saves a wasted trip. Because he admits at Mediclinic Limpopo, people often drive to the hospital expecting to find the rooms there. Consultations are on Grobler Street; the hospital is where admissions happen.

Services at this location

If you have been referred for a lung problem, bring any chest imaging and previous lung function results with you. A pulmonology consultation turns on the trend across tests rather than on a single result, and repeating them wastes both time and benefit.

Internal medicine is a referral speciality, so most medical schemes expect a referral from a general practitioner before funding the consultation.

Quote the practice number 0180000152668 to a medical scheme. Omar is a common surname and there are other practitioners sharing it, so the practice number is what removes doubt on a claim.
