Brits Hospital Contact Details

Brits Hospital is a public hospital run by the North West Department of Health, listed under the Bojanala district. It is a different place from Mediclinic Brits, the private hospital in the same town, which has its own numbers and takes medical aid patients. If your appointment letter or referral carries the Department of Health’s name, this is your hospital. Read from the North West Department of Health’s hospital contacts page on 13 September 2026.

Official contact channels

Brits Hospital: 012 381 7000
North West Department of Health head office: 018 391 4000 or 018 391 4001

The department’s list gives one number per hospital and no ward, casualty or appointment lines. Ask the switchboard to put you through to the department you need, and have the patient’s full name and hospital folder number ready.

Other Bojanala district hospitals

Job Shimankana Tabane Hospital: 014 590 5100 or 014 590 5413
Moses Kotane Hospital: 014 555 2300
Swartruggens Hospital: 014 544 0751
Koster Hospital: 014 543 8500

A patient may be referred between these hospitals, so if a relative has been transferred, the receiving hospital’s switchboard is the one to call.

Address and operating information

The department’s page does not give each hospital’s street address. Use the address on the patient’s referral letter or appointment card. The department’s own head office is at the corner of 1st Street and Sekame Road, Mahikeng, 2745; postal address Private Bag X2068, Mmabatho, 2735.

Support and escalation routes

Raise a complaint about care first with the hospital itself, and ask for the complaint to be recorded and for a reference. If it is not resolved, escalate to the North West Department of Health head office in Mahikeng. In an emergency, do not wait on a switchboard: go to casualty or call an ambulance.
