"My experience with Dr Jana Rossouw was an amazing one. Has excellent bedside manner, she is gentle and explains everything in detail as she goes along. She has a passion for what she does, and you can see it in the way she goes through your appointment. Her feedback is very detailed, and she addresses any concerns you may have. We need more doctors like her who are passionate and have the patience that she does especially during this pandemic she did not rush anything."
