Before you are admitted for treatment please would you complete the enclosed pre- admission questionnaire and registration forms and returns them to us via email or fax or preferably visits our clinic where a trained professional will be able to assist you. It is very important that this is done to enable the hospital to assess your individual needs and determine whether a full pre-admission assessment is requires.
In the event that your questionnaire is not returned in time, your admission may be delayed, and your authorization from your medical scheme may be processed in time.

Knysna Private Hospital is arguably one of the most picturesque hospitals in the world. Located on the eastern side of the famous |
Knysna lagoon, it is elevated on a hillside and therefore features
beautiful views of the lagoon.
It is owned by Life Healthcare Limited. Life has a large interest in
private medicine in South Africa, owning a total of 60 hospitals in the
country. The company has a proven track record of ethical business
principles, and is a leader in private health care in South Africa.
Knysna Private Hospital offers ultra-modern theatre facilities,
specifically geared towards joint replacement surgery. The dedicated orthopaedic theatre, which is designed and built around sterility, is of vital importance for this type of surgery. The theatre's design strictly follows the principle of laminar flow of air, a design which has been proven to reduce the incidence of post-operative infection. The brand new 8 by 7m theatre features a built in Digital Operating Room (DOR) which aids in the performing of all endoscopic surgery and Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS). |
