Strubensvalley Medical Centre

According to previous reviews and the experience my girlfriend just had, it’s quite evident that reception and the doctors aren’t too concerned with their patients time. My girlfriend had an appointment at 12:30. Arrived at 12:15. Hasn’t been seen yet and it’s 13:30. The receptionists haven’t managed her expections on longer wait times. So, she asked when she’d been seen only to be told the doctor still has 4 patients to see before her.

This is unacceptable!

Dr Albrecht is an amazing doctor, very friendly and helpful. He explained the possible cause for my condition, he gave me an injection, as well as prescription with a guarantee of 80% chance that my issue will be resolved. I was experiencing severe pain and itchiness under feet. It started as if it was mosquito bite, then later I would wake up swollen. Little did I know that the more I scratch, the more I was causing irritation as a result I would swell. I went on ice therapy to avoid scratching. The itchiness and the swelling would move from one area to another still under foot, until I started experiencing the same symptoms on the palm of my hands. The condition became worse when it affected under the big tore, the itchiness was unbearable and constant. Only ice gel would cool it down, I had bought 2 ice jels so I would interchange from one gel to another.

What I tried before seeing Dr Albrecht and did not work:

1. Soaking my feet with warm water. I tried adding baking powder, salt, vinegar and dettol. Non of these worked.

2. I would wear socks although uncomfortable especially a night, it did not work.

3. I would rub my feet with cooling leg & foot gel, it did not work.

4. I would rub with strongest menthol in town, Aboniki balm from Nigeria…it also did not work.

5. I bought Neurobion tablets containing vit B1, B6, B12 incase it was nerve problem, but to no avail.

6. I would drink anti inflammation tablets, calcium, folic acid, and multivitamins, all these to no avail….

Upon seeing Dr Albrecht:

1. He gave me injection (I don’t know the name).

2. Prescribed: Amoclan antibiotics, Allecet tablets, and Be-tab Prednisone.

Results started immediately after the injection 😁😁😁🙏🙏🙏 Glory be to God.

I was scared to be excited because I thought it may be too good to be true. The whole day I was getting better and better. The following day, for the first time after 2 weeks I slept without using ice or waking up in the middle of the night due to itchiness. The pain finally disappeared on the third day, no sign nor symptoms remaining.

I thank God for using Dr Albrecht for my healing….I could have went to any other doctor but I was led to him because he was key to my complete healing. God can use medicine to heal us, I can attest to it.

I visited Strubensvalley Medical centre because I had an appointment with Dr Albrecht. I called the call centre in the morning to make an appointment, I was told to come at 12:30. I arrived earlier expecting to see the Doctor at the exact time. I was given the foam to fill in, afterwards I sat for almost 30 minutes without any feedback from the receptionist. It was my first time visiting the medical centre so I also did not know which doctor was Dr Albrecht. Upon arrival there were a couple also waiting for Dr Albrecht, I only realised after being called to the doctor’s office. I rated 4 because of the receptionist, they lack communication, friendliness and the reception area can do with a bit of update for a private medical centre…

I normally see Dr Hayes who is an exceptional doctor. I have also seen Dr Albrecht on more than one occasion. He is an excellent doctor, always helps without referring you, he gets the job done and I highly recommend him.
