About Us

The Story of our Family Practice

Our story began in 1986, in the heart of the old Christians Building, where Dr Bohmer and Dr Hodkinson laid the foundation for what would become a trusted, family-orientated medical practice. With just two doctors, a shared vision, and a deep commitment to care, the practice quickly became part of the Hillcrest community.

In 1991, as our patient base grew, we took a significant step forward — building the Hillcrest Rooms and Medical Centre, a new home for our expanding family of healthcare professionals. Around the same time, we briefly extended our reach with a second set of rooms in Kloof — first on Village Road, then in the Kloof Medical Centre, serving the community there until about 1993.

A leading legacy

Over the years, many dedicated doctors have contributed to our legacy. Alongside our current team, we fondly remember the work of Drs Parkin, Laidlaw, Potgieter, Peter Breedt and others, whose compassion and skill helped shape the heart of our practice.
