Current Fellow 2023
Dr Adisha Nansook
MBChB, DA(SA), Fc Ortho, MMed
Areas of interest:
Paediatrics
After completing both my undergrad and post graduate studies at UKZN, I have made the leap to leave home and join the Paediatric Fellowship at Tygerberg Hospital. Although a major life change, with a new home and work environment, Im looking forward to this new challenge.
Outside of work life, I love nature and outdoors, so you would find me gardening or out "shooting" some wildlife...I'm an amateur wildlife photographer. I particularly enjoy taking photos of predators and birds. And I'm hoping to explore more of the wildlife in Western Cape.
