Local channels
- Rooms: 015 291 5616
- Postal address: PO Box 3974, Polokwane, 0700
- HPCSA registration number: MP0298549
- Practice number: 0180000152668
- The only email listed for him is a personal mailbox on a consumer internet provider domain rather than a practice address, so it is not reproduced here
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
- Rooms: 48 Grobler Street, corner Plein Street, Polokwane, 0699
- He practises at Mediclinic Limpopo
- The rooms are at a street address in town, not inside the hospital building
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
- Internal medicine, the speciality dealing with complex adult medical conditions
- Core competency published by the hospital group: pulmonology
- Qualifications: MBBCh from the University of the Witwatersrand in 1985, and FCP (SA) from the Colleges of Medicine in 1993
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.
Parent organisation
- He practises at Mediclinic Limpopo, part of the Mediclinic Southern Africa group
- Complaints about clinical care or professional conduct: the Health Professions Council of South Africa, quoting MP0298549
- Complaints about the hospital rather than the practice: Mediclinic, which runs its own complaints process
- Disputes about what your medical scheme paid: the scheme first, then the Council for Medical Schemes
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.
