  • About Hester Maria

    We have five excellent female doctors. None of them can pinpoint a specific field of interest but rather enjoy every new case presented. We have patients ranging from newborns to 95 years old and every age in between. No problem is too big or too small; our doctors will handle it all. 


    We submit claims directly to Discovery, Momentum, Medscheme, Gems and CAMAF (only if you are on the network plan). If you are on a different medical aid, you will need to pay us on the day and claim back from the scheme – the scheme won’t reimburse you until you’ve paid us. We are contracted to Medihelp and thus charge their rates; however, we do not submit directly to them; all Medihelp members must pay us on the day of their consult and claim back. Private patients must settle their accounts on the day of the consult unless a prior arrangement with management has been made.

    It was a great experience, I was treated in way that I felt at home and cared for. My well-being was the priority, the doctor knew what she was doing and asked many questions to see if there were many other factors that might have contributed to my illness.
