Dr. Annemarie Gouws

HERMANUS

Summary

I have been working as a practice assistant in a neurosurgery practice for some time and have realised that I require more in depth clinical knowledge of the various pain syndromes/presentations as well as safe and effective management. I desire to widen my scope of practice to be able to assist the patients more effectively.
