Hi, I’m Dr Jana Rossouw. 

I am passionate about the miracle that is pregnancy.  I am inspired by women, raising children with beautiful hearts.  Our mantra is:  “It takes a village to raise a child”.  We are part of this adventure.  
I worked in the government sector for 15 years.  I have experienced first world obstetrics in Boston, Massachusetts. Then I embarked on the path of private practice Fetal and Maternal Medicine in Cape Town.  Experience have filled me with empathy, knowledge, heart and deep understanding of this art. 
We are mothers, sharing stories, burdens and laughter.  We love children and appreciate the importance of the family, and extended family, raising their children together.

It takes a village to raise a child.

Hi, I am Adel Kirsten.

I grew up on a farm in the Free State, where I was raised with strong values, a deep appreciation for community, and the rewards of hard work. Life on the farm taught me the importance of connection, commitment, and doing things properly—principles that continue to guide me every day in my work.

I am a qualified obstetric sonographer, with additional experience in general ultrasound. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of patients, including many years at Karl Bremer Hospital before grounding myself in private practice.

While I’m easygoing and approachable by nature, I am meticulous when it comes to my work. Accuracy, care, and compassion are at the heart of every scan I perform. I truly value the relationships I’ve built over time—many of them with families I’ve had the joy of seeing grow, child by child.

Being able to walk alongside families during some of their most meaningful moments is both a privilege and a passion.

Hi, I am Dr Elrike van der Merwe. 

I have worked in many settings: government sector, private obstetrics and gynaecology, management rolls after obtaining my MBA, worked on an island, and have adopted many stray animals.
I find myself in a place where quality service is what I strive for.  I would like to create a safe place for patients to talk about difficult gynaecological conditions, and topics around being women. 
Having perspective on the world, helps me provide this part of the village to patients.

Hi, I am Sister Lizane Fuzy.

I am a trained midwife, and have worked in various public hospitals of which most recently, Tygerberg Hospital, but also in the Mediclinic and Netcare groups.  I am most proud of being the mother of two fiesty, twin girls.  I have survived the challenges, and have cherished the blessing.
Experiencing the highs and lows of pregnancy and childbirth first-hand and reading often-shared inaccurate information on mom-groups, motivated me to design online antenatal classes and practical guides, to help future first time moms and dads.   This provides professional, evidence-based information, with practical tips.  I have a passion to help moms have confident births and dads to become part of the journey and not just spectators.
