Welcome to Gum Medical

At Gum Medical you will not receive "5-minute medicine".

We believe all health care should be addressed in a comprehensive and wholistic manner that deals with the acute issue, but also guides you with the knowledge and tools to achieve sustained improvements in health and wellbeing. We understand that Health is part of Life, so use medical science combined compassion and understanding to provide advice that is relevant and acheivable.

We strongly believe that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Current COVID and Mask Wearing Policy
While mandates have eased in general, health care settings remain under an increased level of restrictions.
Most doctors in our clinic are able to see patients with cold and flu symptoms but we ask that you advise us via phone so that we can institute procedures to reduce the risk of transmission while visiting our clinic.
Masks are not mandatory, but the waiting room is a place where it may be worthwhile to do so, especially if you have cold and flu symptoms. You can even wait in your car and we will advise you when ready.
All rooms and surfaces are cleaned regularly.

If you have any questions please get in touch.

COVID - 19

During these uncertain times, you can rest assured that Gum Medical is doing the utmost to ensure that you and our staff remain safe. We have a number of procedures in place to limit your chances of exposure.

If you have any of the following symptoms, or are concerned that you may have been at an exposure site:

fever (a temperature of 37.5˚C or higher) or chills.

cough

loss of taste or smell

sore throat

tiredness (fatigue)

runny or blocked nose

shortness of breath (difficulty breathing)

nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea

headache

muscle or joint pain

Please get a COVID test and isolate at home until you receive a negative result as per SA Health guidelines.

Our doctors will all be wearing fit-tested N95 masks and goggles that provide the highest level of protection reasonably possible.

You can help by wearing a mask while you are in our clinic and maintaining social distancing. To minimize the time, you spend sitting in the waiting room we ask that you wait for your appointment outside or in your car. You can let us know that you have arrived by checking in on the HotDoc app, otherwise ring the doorbell or call and let reception know on 8389 1009. We will then contact you when the doctor or nurse is available to see you.

We do continue to offer face to face appointments where appropriate, but ask that, if appropriate and safe, you consider a telehealth appointment instead.
