OUR SERVICES

Screening and early detection of chronic disease

Screening and early detection of diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, endocrine disorders, infectious diseases and cancer. Symptoms that may alert you that there is a problem are feeling tired all the time, weight changes, pains, tingles and brain fog.

Full medical assessment

We offer complete and thorough medical examinations to improve the quality of life of our patients, to ease their symptoms and assist with disease control. No two patients are alike so each patient will have a tailored treatment plan.

Manage a wide spectrum of adult medical conditions

Patients are usually referred to physicians when they have conditions that are difficult to diagnose or need expert medical management for complex diseases. Close follow up and good management can prevent further deterioration and complications.

Outpatient Consultation

A first consultation includes a comprehensive history taking and medical examination with an electrocardiogram, blood glucose measurement, urine dipstix and peak expiratory flow rate. If necessary further investigations such as imaging (X-rays, CT scans etc.) or blood tests may be requested. A diagnosis and a treatment plan will be established as part of your care.

Emergency Admissions

Dr Singh covers the Emergency department at Cape Town Mediclinic and patients that are acutely sick and unwell can come into the casualty at any time to be seen and admitted to the ward for Dr Singh to manage.

Virtual Consults

In today’s increasingly busy world we may need to have a consultation but can’t make it in person for a variety of travel-limiting reasons. Online consultations are available on request.

ECG & Glucose Monitoring

An electrocardiogram and blood glucose testing are done at consultation. Diabetic patients are offered free glucose testing devices to monitor glucose levels at home. These are state of the art glucometers and are subject to availability.

Medical Disability

Dr Singh can assist with the assessments necessary for the application of medical insurance and disability applications.
