Dr Ferreira private practice

I have opened my GP practice at 19 Springfield Road (ERF 26), Winterton.

After completing our studies at the University of the Free State, my wife Sarah & I, moved down to Durban to do our internship at King Edward Hospital. It is there that we honed our skills and grew to love the people and the province of KZN.

We moved to Ingwavuma for our Community Service year and grew to love rural places and rural medicine with all its variety.

Since 2012 we have been working at Emmaus District Hospital, during which time I have completed my diplomas in Obstetrics, and HIV clinical management, as well as doing courses in Paediatric and Adult Advanced Life Support, Advanced Trauma Life Support and Nenonatal life support. Our family also expanded during this time with two children, now 6 and 3 years old, who have settled nicely into life in our beautiful area. I have worked in all the wards, clinics, casualty and theatre at Emmaus, and for the last few years ran the paediatric ward. I also briefly acted as Medical Manager, where I discovered that meetings and more meetings detracted from my time with patients, which was certainly not my cup of tea.
