Dr Dion Dorfman

Dion has the kind of presence in a consultation that immediately puts people at ease. He is calm without being distant, thorough without being clinical, and genuinely interested in the person sitting across from him — not just the presenting complaint.

A UCT graduate and long-standing member of the MyFamilyGP team, Dion has built a reputation in Sea Point for exactly the qualities that matter most in a family doctor: careful listening, a whole-person approach, and the kind of steady reassurance that comes from actually knowing what you are doing. He sees patients across all ages and presentations.

He believes that treating illness means understanding the person carrying it — their mental and emotional wellbeing, their circumstances, and their history. That philosophy is one he shares with the rest of the practice.

Clinical approach.

• Whole-person, mind-body approach to general practice
• Acute care, chronic disease management, and preventative medicine
• Particular warmth with patients who have had difficult experiences of healthcare
• Strong community ties in Sea Point
