Sabelo Dhlamini

Clinical Associate

Summary

I am a Clinical Associate, also known as a Physician Assistant, with diverse hospital based experience spanning from Emergency Medicine and, most recently, Interventional Radiology. In my clinical roles, I assess patients, make diagnoses, prescribe treatment, and perform minor surgical procedures under a doctor’s supervision.

My background includes hands-on experience in mental health care, youth leadership, emergency medicine, and medical compliance, supported by a strong foundation in research and program coordination.


Beyond clinical care, I have strong administrative and organizational skills, particularly in managing, coordinating, and evaluating healthcare programs and projects. I am deeply passionate about holistic patient care—believing that good clinicians must tend not only to a patient’s physical health, but also their mental, emotional, and psychosocial needs.
