Dr Laurence Cohen, MBCh.B.(Stell.)

Dr Cohen graduated from the University of Stellenbosch in 1981. He spent several years working in North America, Canada and the United Kingdom. He returned to South Africa and specialised in radiology.

Subsequently, he decided to return to general practice and opened a family practice in Walloon Road, Constantia.

He later opened both the Constantiaberg and Claremont emergency units, which he operated independently of his own practice. As each of these practices grew, it became too much for one person to concentrate on, and he decided to confine himself to his family practice. He remains passionate about the role of the old-fashioned family doctor and has a special interest in preventative medicine, cardiology, minor surgery and skin conditions.

Lynne Belchers

Lynne worked for about thirty years as a General Practioner's receptionist. She then took a break for a few years to do childcare. As much as Lynne enjoyed this, she missed working with people and is delighted to be working for Dr Cohen and all his lovely patients.
