Start with your GP

Care at the practice. Referrals when needed.

The doctor assesses your medical needs and recommends appropriate treatment or investigation.

Medical consultations

We see KeyCare patients for medical conditions that require a doctor. Your consultation helps guide treatment and any necessary follow-up.

Specialist referrals

We can refer you for appropriate specialist care when needed. Confirm the specialist’s network status and any referral reference or authorisation before attending.

Blood drawn in our rooms

We draw blood at the practice for clinically indicated tests. Your option’s approved test list and benefit rules determine cover.

X-ray referrals

When an X-ray is appropriate, we can refer you to an imaging provider. Check that the requested test and provider meet your plan’s requirements.

Mammogram referrals

We can refer you for a mammogram when appropriate. Mammograms are done at an imaging provider; cover depends on the applicable screening or diagnostic benefit.

A referral or blood draw does not mean every test or specialist visit is automatically covered. Confirm benefits, limits and any approvals before proceeding.

Medication from our rooms

Acute medication, within the formulary

We are a dispensing practice

Where medication is appropriate, we issue acute medication from the KeyCare formulary at the practice. Acute medication treats a current, short-term condition.

An approved list with limits

The formulary is the approved medication list. Your medication is restricted to that list and its limits. It does not include every medicine, brand or quantity.

If you have a medication question

Bring your current medication list to your consultation

Tell the doctor what you already take and about any medication allergies. We can explain which appropriate options are available within the formulary and discuss any medicine that falls outside it.

Ongoing medication may need chronic registration and separate approval. We can help with chronic registration.

Our KeyCare fair usage policy

Visits based on medical need

KeyCare consultations at our practice are for medical conditions that require a doctor.

The network usage expectation we work with is three consultations per year. This is not a three-visit limit. If you have a genuine medical reason to see a doctor, further consultations remain available, subject to your plan’s rules.

Please use appointments for genuine medical needs. Do not delay necessary care because you have already had three visits.

Common KeyCare questions

Am I limited to three consultations a year?

No. Our fair usage policy uses an expectation of three visits a year, but this is not a hard limit. Further consultations are available when there is a genuine medical reason that requires a doctor, subject to your plan’s rules.

Do you give me medication at the practice?

Yes. We are a dispensing practice and issue appropriate acute medication from the KeyCare formulary. Medication is restricted to the approved list and its limits; not every medicine or brand is included.

Can you refer me to a specialist?

Yes. The doctor can refer you for appropriate specialist care when clinically needed. Check the required network, referral reference or authorisation and your available benefit before attending.

Can I have blood drawn at the practice?

Yes, we draw blood in the rooms when tests are clinically indicated. Cover depends on whether the requested tests meet your KeyCare option’s rules and approved test list.

Can you refer me for X-rays or a mammogram?

Yes, when appropriate. X-rays and mammograms are performed at an imaging provider, not in our rooms. Confirm the provider, cover and any authorisation requirements before attending.

How do I nominate this practice?

Use our Discovery practice number 0355283 when asking Discovery to nominate Phoenix Plaza Medical Center / Dr Neven Govender. Confirm that our practice is eligible for your exact KeyCare option and that your nomination is active before your visit.
