Dr Chris W Fourie

General Practitioner & Partner

Dr Chris W Fourie

  • MB ChB, Stellenbosch University, 1998

Dr Fourie qualified at Stellenbosch University in 1998 and is a founding partner of the practice. His special interests are emergency medicine, orthopaedics, maternity care and minor surgical procedures, which means fractures, lacerations and urgent problems are often dealt with in the rooms rather than referred on. He is a follower of Jesus and an adventurer at heart, and brings that same energy to looking after Walvis Bay families.
