Dr Marcelle Smith is a neurologist in Johannesburg, with rooms at Mediclinic Sandton in Bryanston. She practises across two hospitals, which is worth knowing when you are told to attend an appointment or an admission at short notice.

Official contact channels

Neurology is a referral speciality and appointments are usually booked well ahead. Say clearly when you phone if the problem is new weakness, new numbness, a first seizure or a sudden severe headache, because those are triaged differently from a routine review.

What this organisation provides

Sudden face droop, arm weakness or speech difficulty is a stroke until proven otherwise. Call an ambulance on 10177, or 112 from a mobile phone, and go to an emergency unit. Stroke treatment is time-critical and a rooms appointment is the wrong route.
