how can I help?

GP Services

This page answers one simple question: "Can Dr Bernha help me with this?"In most cases of everyday and family medicine, the answer is yes — and if a specialist is the better route, I'll refer you to the right one.

Acute illnesses

Flu, infections, stomach bugs, rashes, pain and injuries — the illnesses that arrive uninvited and need prompt, practical treatment.

Chronic disease management

Blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, asthma, thyroid conditions and more — managed consistently, with regular reviews and scripts.

Preventative healthcare

Vaccinations, screenings and lifestyle guidance — because the easiest illness to treat is the one that never happens.

General health assessments

Full check-ups and wellness assessments — a proper look at where your health stands and what deserves attention.

Women's health

Family & general medicine

Care for every member of the household — children, parents and grandparents — with one doctor who knows the whole family.

Minor procedures

Stitches, wound care, mole and lesion removal, injections and drips — small procedures done comfortably in the rooms.

Medical certificates & assessments

Sick notes, fitness certificates and medical assessments for work, school or sport — issued appropriately after consultation.

For employers & employees

Fitness-for-work, pre-employment and return-to-work assessments, occupational medicals and workplace health assessments — for businesses in Kloof and the Upper Highway area.
