Questions
Questions about the practice
Is the practice open at night and on weekends?
Yes, call 0861 725 633 at any hour: the GP practice at 89 Impala Road, Kelvin View, Sandton, is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Nights, weekends and public holidays use the same number and the same team. Phone before you set off so the practice knows you are coming.
Can a video consultation give me a sick note?
Yes, where the consultation supports it. A Ralmed doctor on a video call can issue a sick note or a referral in the same way as at the practice. If the doctor decides you need an examination, tests or treatment in person, they will ask you to come in to Kelvin View instead.
Do you have practices outside Sandton?
No. Ralmed's clinical care is based at one practice in Kelvin View, Sandton. Patients who search doctors near me and can reach it by car are seen there, and patients further away can book a video consultation. Our ambulance service can help when someone cannot travel.
Can international patients arrange care before they travel?
Yes. Ralmed coordinates care for patients travelling to South Africa for treatment, including air ambulance flights, from the moment they arrive through to admission. Send the patient's medical summary and travel plans by email or WhatsApp, and the team will work out the transfer, the receiving hospital and the crew needed.
Do I need an appointment to see a doctor?
You do not need to book days ahead, but please call 0861 725 633 before you come in. The call lets the practice know you are on your way and tells you what to bring, such as your ID, your medical aid card and a list of any medicines you take.
Can the practice do blood tests?
Yes. The practice has a medical laboratory on the same premises, so samples taken during your consultation are tested on site. Results go back into the same episode of care instead of a separate appointment days later, and the doctor explains what they mean and what happens next.
Can I get a sick note from a Ralmed doctor?
Yes, where it is clinically appropriate. A doctor at the practice or on a video call assesses you, then issues a sick note with the dates you were unfit for work. The note carries the doctor's details, so your employer can verify it. The sick notes page explains what a valid note contains.
Does the practice treat children?
Yes. Ralmed's doctors see adults and children at the practice, including at night, at weekends and on public holidays. Bring your child's clinic card or medical aid details and a list of any medicines they take. If a child needs hospital care, the doctor can arrange a referral and a Ralmed ambulance.
What if I cannot travel to the practice?
Book a video consultation with a Ralmed doctor for anything that does not need an examination room. If you are too unwell to travel and need to be seen in person, call 0861 725 633 and the control room will arrange an ambulance to bring you in or take you to hospital.
