ABOUT US

MediECinc has been managing the 24-Hour MEDICLINIC MIDSTREAM – EMERGENCY CENTRE since MARCH 2015.

Over 7 years we have acquired extensive experience in managing an Emergency Medicine Practice.

Since June 2022, MediECinc had been successfully managing the Accident & Emergency Unit at the new Raslouw Private Hospital, building a new practice from the beginning, building on the experience gained at Mediclinic Midstream Emergency Centre. 

From February, 2023, MediECinc, will also be taking over the management for the well established and busy Emergency Centre at Mediclinic Brits, incorporating the proven principles of practice from Mediclinic Midstream Emergency Centre, into the Brits practice and continuing to improve the level of service we provide. 

MediECinc consists of a dynamic team of doctors, highly qualified & experienced in the field of Emergency Medicine. We provide an all-inclusive Emergency Service, including Medical & Trauma Emergencies. With permanent doctors and a compliment of independent accredited doctors tending to any emergency 24/7.
