Dr Lionel Jedeikin I operate from the Christian Barnard Memorial Hospital in the heart of Cape Town.

It utilizes state of the art equipment and technology and I am backed by experienced and highly qualified staff and registered specialist anaesthesiologists - all of whom are committed to quality care. My PA, Debbie Onia, handles all client relations with utmost professionalism and care.

Qualifications

Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery - Godfrey Huggins School of Medicine
Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians & Surgery - University College of Edinburgh & Glasgow
Fellow of the College of Surgeons of South Africa - Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

After having begun my career as a reconstructive surgeon, and having an interest in hand surgery, I decided to specialise further in the field of cosmetic surgery. My practice at present is mostly aesthetic surgery, however I spend approximately 10% of my time dedicated to skin surgery ( skin cancers etc….)
