I like to do all my medical checks at the same time. Are there other practitioners?

Yes. Our Paulshof practice shares Cambridge Medical Suites with GP Dr Sonia Doubell, GP Dr Bianca Lewarne, Dr Danette Rossouw (dentist), and a nursing sister who runs a weight loss clinic. It’s convenient if you need an all-in-one healthcare appointment.

What are the Paulshof team’s areas of expertise?

Shelagh has been a physiotherapist since 2001 and is certified in Advanced Neuromuscular Skeletal Therapy (ANMSC/OMT), Sport Therapy (SPT) and Level 1 Fascial Manipulation. She has experience with all spinal and joint injuries and also enjoys treating an active population.

Karina has recently returned to Lamberti after being overseas. Not only does she have a special interest in sports physiotherapy, but she is also qualified to use clinical Pilates for treatment. This is excellent for chronic back and neck conditions, rehab from injury, and building strength in a controlled way.

Ebenezer’s passion is orthopaedics and is currently studying for her Master’s Degree in this at Wits University.

Where exactly is the Paulshof branch and what is the parking like?

We’re in Cambridge Medical Suites at Cambridge Crossing Shopping Centre, on the corner of Stonehaven and Witkoppen Roads. Parking is free and available in the shopping centre bays. There is a lift in the basement parking on the left as you come into the centre. The lift brings you up right at our door.

We’re easy to reach from Paulshof, Petervale, Bryanston, Kleve Hill Park, Sunninghill and Rivonia.

How long is a physiotherapy session at Paulshof?

Forty minutes. We chose that length deliberately so your physio has time to assess properly, treat hands-on, and walk you through what’s going on and what to do at home.

For more on how the practice works and our approach to care, see our About Lamberti Physiotherapy page.

Do I need a doctor's referral to make an appointment?

No. Physiotherapists are first-line practitioners in South Africa, so you can book directly with us. Some medical aids plans require a referral from a GP, so please check at least 24 hours before you head to your appointment.  Both Sports Injury Benefit patients and Spinal Conservative Care Programme patients from Discovery require referral and activation from their GP or specialist.

 If you do have a recent referral or surgeon’s notes, bring them along.

What's the best way to make a booking?

There are four options to choose from:

Online is usually fastest if you know which physio you want.

What if I don't have medical aid?

We run Clinic Days at a lower fee for qualifying patients who cannot afford medical aid. Please book by phone, since Clinic Day slots are not shown online.

Do you accept walk-ins?

Yes, we do accept walk-in patients and try to accommodate them as quickly as possible. If all the physiotherapists are fully booked, we will assist you as soon as someone is available. However, we’d rather you call ahead so we can hold a slot. A quick call on (010) 140 0005 (select 4) usually gets you in same-day if there’s a gap.

Do you offer dry needling?

Yes. All members of the team are trained in dry needling and use it where it fits the patient and the presentation, typically for trigger points, persistent muscle tightness, headaches and certain sports injuries.

We’ll always explain why we’re recommending it before we use it.

Do you treat children and teenagers?

Yes. We see school-age sports injuries (hockey, rugby, netball), growing-pain complaints like Osgood-Schlatter’s and Sever’s disease, and posture-related back and neck pain from heavy school bags and long desk hours.

Parents are welcome in the treatment room with younger children.

Will I get exercises to do at home after my session?

Yes, almost always. Hands-on treatment in the rooms is half the work; the other half is what you do between sessions. You’ll leave with a clear set of exercises, often emailed or in a video link, so you don’t have to remember the detail.

Do you claim directly from medical aid?

Yes. We charge medical aid rates and submit claims directly on your behalf. If your medical aid does not cover physiotherapy, or if you are out of funds, then you will need to settle the outstanding amount after your session. Please bring your medical aid card to your first visit so we can capture your details.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Your medical aid card (if applicable), a towel, and a pair of shorts if your condition involves the lower back and lower limbs, or a strappy top for woman if the condition involves the upper back, shoulder or neck. If you have recent X-rays, MRI scans, or surgeon’s reports relating to what we’re seeing you for, please bring those too.

What details do we need for your first session?

Once you’ve made a booking, you’ll receive an SMS before your appointment with a link to complete your personal and consent details online. If you’d like a sense of what to expect, read our patient testimonials.
