Dr Lenake Contact Details

Dr Mpopi Lenake is an eye specialist practising in Somerset West, Cape Town. Her practice publishes one telephone number, one reception mailbox and a set of office hours that end early on a Friday.

Official contact channels

• Practice: 021 840 3210, published as +27 21 840 3210
• Email: reception@drlenake.co.za
• An enquiry form is published on the practice contact page
• The number in the practice site configuration matches the number displayed on the page, which is a useful consistency check on a small practice site

Use the reception mailbox for anything you want in writing, such as a referral letter, a medical aid authorisation or a query about a procedure quote.

What this organisation provides

• Specialist eye care, listed by the practice as ophthalmology
• The practice publishes a before and after gallery, articles and media items alongside its clinical pages
• As a specialist practice, a referral is normally required before a medical scheme will fund the consultation

Eye surgery and in-rooms procedures are usually authorised separately from the consultation, so ask what is included in a quote and what your scheme has approved before the date.

Address and operating information

• Address: Suite 6K, 1st Floor, Block 6, Arun Place, Somerset West, Cape Town
• Monday to Thursday: 08:00 to 17:00
• Friday: 08:00 to 13:30
• Closed on Saturday and Sunday

The early Friday close is the detail worth noting. The practice shuts at 13:30 on a Friday and does not open over the weekend, so a Friday afternoon problem waits until Monday.

Support and escalation routes

• Appointments, accounts and referrals: the practice on 021 840 3210 or reception@drlenake.co.za
• Complaints about clinical care or professional conduct: the Health Professions Council of South Africa
• Disputes about what your medical scheme paid: the scheme first, then the Council for Medical Schemes
• Ask for the practice number when dealing with a scheme, since it identifies the practice exactly

For eye surgery in particular, keep the quote, the authorisation number and the account together. Ophthalmic procedures often involve a separate charge for a lens or a device, and that item is the one most likely to be short paid.
