The facilities are out of this world, the food that we had while admitted was the best. The health professionals were the best. If you need to reset, if you feel as though things are heavy on you ask your medical Practitioner to do a referral for you. When it's time for you to be discharged you won't want to go home. The person who built this facility deserves all the blessings. !(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocKleUHjAmVlU-oqFxLxDmm23eahVkYpvF_P3tYlw_033Jv2ww=s120-c-rp-mo-ba3-br100) Khanyisile Mukhari 2025-03-14 I Highly recommend everything about this facility. !(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjVhRu-tOSrkV-B5zJubd6RqpvzzWfGSwc4ZvwmkKAGNO1mdUQPWRA=s120-c-rp-mo-ba4-br100) Maarten Opperman 2025-03-09 Very friendly, approachable staff.
