Introduction
I am an occupational therapist specializing in medico-legal assessments and expert opinion reporting. I provide objective, evidence-based evaluations in personal injury matters and third-party claims, including motor vehicle accidents, public liability incidents, and medical negligence.
In parallel with my medico-legal consulting, I maintain active clinical practice at Mediclinic Limpopo Hospital and Netcare Pholoso Hospital, ensuring my opinions remain firmly anchored in current, hands‑on clinical experience. This dual engagement enables me to produce defensible expert reports for legal proceedings while upholding the highest standards of client‑centred rehabilitation aimed at maximising functional independence, work capacity, and quality of life.
Medico-Legal Services
Road Accident Fund (RAF)
Providing expert reports and witness testimony to assist attorneys and courts in determining functional outcomes, employability, and loss of earnings. We utilize Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCE) to measure work ability, analyze job tasks, and establish loss of earning capacity.
Our defensible reports are built on objective data and standardized outcome measures, clearly documenting the true functional impact of personal injury to support quantum determinations.
Medical Negligence
Delivering expert opinion reports and testimony for attorneys in complex medical negligence claims, establishing functional outcomes and overall impact on daily independence.
Anchored in active clinical practice at Mediclinic Limpopo Hospital and Netcare Pholoso Hospital, our evidence-based evaluations provide defensible reports that isolate the impact of clinical errors for legal proceedings.
Clinical Rehabilitation Services
Vocational Rehabilitation
Utilizing Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) and detailed job analysis to assess work readiness. We identify residual functional capacity and recommend tailored workplace adaptations and reasonable accommodations to facilitate a safe, sustainable return to work.
Orthopedic & Hand Therapy
Targeted upper-limb rehabilitation for hand, wrist, and arm injuries. Utilizing custom splinting, specialized modalities, and therapeutic exercises, we work to restore fine motor control, grip strength, and functional utility for daily living and occupational demands.
Geriatric & Aging-in-Place
Comprehensive home safety and risk assessments designed to reduce fall risks and enhance daily mobility. We recommend practical environmental modifications to enable older adults to age safely, comfortably, and independently in their own homes.
Mental Health Support
Helping clients navigate various mental health conditions through structured routines, emotional regulation techniques, and practical coping strategies. Our approach focuses on building the functional foundation required to confidently re-enter the workforce and community life.
Neurological Rehabilitation
Specialized therapy focused on neuro-restoration following a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or neurological condition. We target brain-body coordination to help patients regain cognitive abilities, physical control, and day-to-day independence.
Pediatric Intervention
Early intervention and developmental therapy for children experiencing physical, sensory, or learning delays. We utilize structured, play-based strategies to improve motor planning, social integration, and academic performance.
Neonatal Care
Developmentally supportive care tailored for premature and critically ill infants. Focusing on therapeutic positioning, oral-motor feeding techniques, and sensory regulation, we help protect early brain development and promote healthy growth outside the womb.
I believe that the most defensible legal reports come from therapists who are actively involved in patient care. My practice is built on the pillars of objective data, evidence-based evaluations, and a commitment to documenting the true functional impact of personal injury.
