OUR STORY


The House Call was founded by Dr Zaakir H. Nakhwa, a qualified medical doctor with a passion for primary and patient-focused health care.

After working on the Frontlines of public healthcare during the first and second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa, the urgency for home-based health care became more evident to Dr Nakhwa. The need for avoiding unnecessary contact, and protecting the elderly and those at higher risk from exposure to infection, meant Dr Nakhwa found himself faced with requests for home-based consultations and personal, patient-focused health care within his own community.

At the same time, the wisdom of the older generation, who often speak of the convenience, knowledge, and personal touch of “house doctors” back in the day, resonated with Dr Nakhwa.

The House Call was then born, bringing back a respected and appreciated practice with a modern twist. Aiming to prioritize the patients comfort and needs, we believe caring is our calling.
