Dr van der Walt
Dr. Nico van der Walt embarked on his journey in the field of medicine in 2006 when he obtained his MBChB degree from the University of Pretoria. Following his graduation, he dedicated two years to completing his internship in Potchefstroom, gaining invaluable experience and honing his skills. It was during his community service year that Dr. van der Walt found his passion for Orthopaedics and decided to pursue further specialization in this field. In 2010, he began his rigorous training as a registrar at UKZN’s Pietermaritzburg Complex, which ultimately led to him being recognised as a Fellow of the College of Orthopaedics of South Africa in 2016.
Dr. van der Walt not only excels in his career but also cherishes the precious moments he spends with his wife, Jana, and their three beautiful children. Their love for adventure and nature draws them outdoors, where they create lasting memories with friends and family. Since September 2016, Dr. Nico has been providing exceptional medical care at Newcastle Medi-clinic, fulfilling his passion for helping others in the private practice setting.
