- Good morning
I hope hope you are doing well. In this video I give you the details on how to become a GP in south Africa. I touch on the requirements of becoming a GP and how they make their money. I interviewed a couple of GPs both small and big time GPs who have been in the industry and they gave me all the information used in this video. I myself am NOT a GP. If you have any questions link them down below and I'll try answer.
If you're from outside SA then you need to go through the process of writing the board exams and go through internship then comserve. thereafter you'll have you independent medical practitioner certificate. You will only then be able to follow the same process and South African Drs.

Thanks for watching ✨🤸🥳💗👌🏽🌷🔆
i liked this,i had my eyes on internal medicine but i felt like you were speaking to me here today.definitely going for GP.
Can you do a similar video for specaialists in private practice
Sounds great and all until you hear stories of General Practitioners (GP) who do not pay their workers well or GP who fraud their members' (patients) medical aid funds. I know GPs who decided to close their practice and rather work for DoH. However, given the high unemployment rate, I would suggest anyone who is ethical to take this route, to create employment and pay their workers fairly or at least market-related salaries instead of exploiting workers. A graduate diploma in business administration is highly recommended unless you choose to focus on your core competencies and outsource any administrative duties.
With all the money they make I ddnt know they'd be so cruel. Thanks for highlighting that🤔🙏.
There's also a medical practice management course that can workout much cheaper and more specific than a general business management course
According to Hpcsa and DOL , You are not allowed to see more than 50 patients per day.... And see more than 50 pt can also invites troubles from medical aids. The other thing is being a GP is not good in our days as medical aid are harrassing us now and then, Like In my practice there are certain medical aid i don't accept due to harrassment. ...... Being a GP it's very difficult in these days. What i can advise a person who wants to be a GP is that he/she must not quit her/his job
Thanks for sharing and highlighting important facts 🙌🏾

Hello Dr. Ann. You mentioned as a con of not being kept on your toes and not being up to date with things medicine. So I want to ask if you know whether or not there are like workshops or academic meetings that are there for GPs in order to help them in that regard?
They can read and listen to webinars. Courses depend on area of interest. In the public sector there's presentations of these latest journals and guidelines which makes it easier to keep updated.
@@DrAnn_Healthhub Okay. I see. Thank you❤️
Hey Doc, we haven't heard from you in a while. What's your take on the unemployment rate of doctors in SA right now ? Kindly make a video and share your thoughts and give advice to us who aspire to become. Enkosi
Can GP's deliver babies or can they only do prenatal care
They definitely can
Some private hospitals don't allow this, others allow GPs with a Diploma in Obs. So it is possible.
