I was referred to Dr Hartmann by several friends. It was the best decision I had ever made! I required an intricate procedure to remove a massive teratoma tumor from my let ovary. My previous doctor was horrid and tried to con me out of R12000 prior to the op. Dr Hartmann did not demand any "upfront" payments, and handle my case with such professionalism. He is punctual at all times, and his bedside manner is simply wonderful. He explained my condition to me with patience and compassion. During my stay at the hospital, he conducted his rounds early, and endeavored to make sure I was comfortable and taken care of. I highly recommend Dr Hartmann to every woman needing a kind, compassionate and gentle gynecologist.
