LONGTERM CARE WITH A SKILLED GP

As a General Practitioner, Dr Kashmira is an expert at primary healthcare. This is why GP’s are often your first stop on the healthcare ladder. Our family doctor often see’s patients for extended periods of their lives and can treat families as a unit.

PREVENTATIVE HEALTH CARE WITH OUR FAMILY DOCTOR

Dr Kashmira places great importance on preventative health management for her patients. These include giving tips for lifestyle changes and screening for diseases, which she feels should be the cornerstone of any GP’s care.

During a consultation, a comprehensive medical history is taken, covering your past medical and surgical history, as well as your sleep, stress, and eating habits. Based on the initial assessment, blood tests and other medical examinations may be ordered, and referrals to specialists provided, if required.

Dr Kashmira spends the time to really listen to her patients’ concerns. She encourages regular GP visits to assist you in having a comprehensive understanding of your Health status. This ‘health baseline’ will make it easier to identify outliers in your health profile when you do present with symptoms for earlier detection of illness and quicker treatment.
