Our Healthcare Services

Welcome to Bergvliet Family Practice

Bergvliet Family Practice was born from the need within the Bergvliet community and southern suburbs surrounds to bring good quality health care closer to home. Our goal is to create a space that is welcoming, easy to access, safe, caring and caters to the needs of patients of all ages and walks of life.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family into our practice.

Geriatric Patients

Treating geriatric patients can be slightly more complicated than their younger counterparts. Bergvliet Family Practice can treat all members of the family, regardless of age. We’re uniquely suited to assist older patients with multiple medical conditions, and we will do our best to ensure they are healthy and comfortable in their golden years. Our practice has wheelchair access for immobile or frail patients.

Women’s Health and Breast Cancer Awareness

At Bergvliet Family Practice, we strive to ensure each of our patients receives the highest level of care. We are able to offer home visits to patients who are based in retirement homes close by, or are unable to visit our practice for their consultations. We understand that travelling may be difficult for some and this extra stress may prevent you from getting the great medical care you deserve, so we will come to you and make sure you get it. Please note that this is not an emergency service but can be pre-arranged with reception.
