So happy to be back on Gesels. S7! 🤍

We had such an important conversation about something we often overlook — sleep. It’s not just rest; it’s the foundation of your physical health, mental wellbeing, and daily energy.

If you’ve been feeling run down, overwhelmed, or just not yourself, your sleep might be the missing piece.

Take this as your reminder to prioritise rest — your body and mind truly depend on it.

The body often gives subtle signals before something becomes serious.

Persistent bloating.
Unexpected bleeding.
Pelvic pain that keeps returning.

Many women ignore these signs for months or even years.

Listening to your body is part of preventative healthcare.

Autism awareness often focuses on childhood. But conversations around maternal health, pregnancy care and early development are part of the same picture.

Healthy pregnancies start long before birth:
• preconceptual advice and checkups
• managing chronic conditions
• avoiding harmful exposures

Early health support gives children the best start.

April is Health Awareness Month in South Africa.

Awareness days are not just dates on a calendar. They exist to remind people that many health conditions are preventable, detectable, or treatable when found early.

For women’s health this includes:
• cervical cancer screening
• HPV vaccination
• understanding abnormal bleeding
• recognising pelvic symptoms early

Small check-ups change outcomes.

Surgery isn’t about rushing or routine. It’s about intention. Preparation. Respect for the person on the table. Theatre work is demanding, focused and deeply purposeful. This is where my passion lies.

Pain isn’t something you should simply live with. Heavy bleeding isn’t something to ignore. Your body gives signals for a reason. Healthy awareness starts with paying attention and asking the right questions.

This week, we were proud to officially open our new digital PET-CT unit at Life Vincent Pallotti Hospital, in partnership with GE HealthCare – bringing advanced diagnostic oncology care closer to the communities we serve.

This state-of-the-art scanner, the first digital PET-CT scanner in the Life Healthcare Group and only the second privately operated PET-CT scanner in the Western Cape, gives doctors clearer, more detailed information to help manage cancer with greater accuracy, avoiding both under- and overtreatment.

Recent headlines about chemicals detected in menstrual products have raised concern. Detection, however, does not automatically mean harm. Modern testing methods can identify extremely small trace amounts, often far below levels known to cause risk. Swipe to read my perspective on how to interpret these findings.

A major advancement in cancer imaging has arrived in Cape Town where my practice is located 🌟

A PET-CT scanner is now available at Life Vincent Pallotti Hospital, providing advanced imaging that allows more accurate cancer detection, staging and monitoring of treatment response.

By combining metabolic and anatomical imaging, PET-CT helps oncology teams make more precise and personalised treatment decisions.

A meaningful step forward in improving cancer care for my oncology patients.
