EXCELLENT Based on 182 reviews Posted on Google Martina Rink4 August 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We found ourselves in a very urgent medical situation on a Sunday and had already visited two hospitals without getting the help we desperately needed. As tourists, we had no idea how to access the specific treatment we required. From the very first phone call to receiving medical care, everything was handled seamlessly. The communication was outstanding; fast, clear, compassionate, and highly professional. Every member of the team was incredibly knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely cared about helping us. Without their support, we would never have been able to obtain the specific vaccine we urgently needed as visitors to Cape Town. They made what seemed impossible for us become possible. I cannot recommend this company highly enough and am truly grateful for their exceptional service. If I ever need medical assistance again while in Cape Town, they will be my first call without hesitation. Thank you for your outstanding care and support! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wir hatten eine wirklich brenzlige medizinische Situation an einem Sonntag und waren bereits in zwei Krankenhäusern, ohne die Hilfe zu bekommen, die wir dringend benötigten. Als Touristen wussten wir nicht mehr weiter. Vom ersten Telefonat bis zur medizinischen Versorgung verlief alles absolut reibungslos. Die Kommunikation war hervorragend ,schnell, klar, empathisch und gleichzeitig äußerst professionell. Das gesamte Team war fachlich sehr kompetent, zuverlässig und hat uns in einer Ausnahmesituation unglaublich unterstützt. Ohne ihre Hilfe hätten wir den speziellen Impfstoff, den wir dringend brauchten, als Touristen niemals bekommen. Sie haben für uns möglich gemacht, was für uns allein unmöglich gewesen wäre. Ich kann diesen Service uneingeschränkt empfehlen und bin unendlich dankbar für die schnelle und kompetente Unterstützung. Sollte ich wieder in Kapstadt sein und medizinische Hilfe benötigen, würde ich mich jederzeit wieder an dieses Team wenden. Vielen Dank für Ihren außergewöhnlichen Service!Posted on Google Etienne Monas13 July 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Quick response and visit in the hotel.

What our clients have to say
Testimonials
My 80 year old mother who lived in Cape Town, 1200km away from where I am in Johannesburg became bed ridden in December, she also suddently became critically ill and needed urgent medical attention and her family doctor was on leave. In desparation I found and called AGMS. From the enquiry call through to when the doctor went out to my mom and gave her the appropriate treament, the staff were unbelievable - kind, compassionate and most importantly saw immediately the treatment she needed and ensured that she got it. I cannot thank the staff at AGMS enough for all their efforts and amazing treatment of my mom.
Sally Witherden
They are life savers! Absolutely, I recommend. I wish they were in the United States where I live as well. 20 out of 10 stars! Thank you for all you did for us!
Derek Orbach
Wow! Just wow! Talk about life savers… my elderly and frail mom needed urgent treatment 2 weeks ago. With no medical aid, admission to private hospital was not an option. I discovered this amazing team on my Google search. Dr Thaele went to my mom’s old age home within a very short period after making contact with Jerry who coordinates everything via WhatsApp. Dr Thaele was kind and compassionate, quickly assessing that my mom needed admission and arranged for an ambulance to collect her to Groote Schuur. I was not with my mom, but Dr Thaele called me to inform me of everything. The following day, he called me to find out how my mom was. Thankfully, she was fine, as Dr Thaele had diagnosed a DVT which is an emergency! Jerry was prompt and super helpful on WhatsApp too. Highly recommend.
Lauren Smith
I cannot recommend AGMS enough. From the way Jerry explained everything to me telephonically, Dr Thaele doing a house visit and thoroughly examining my 82 year old father, discussing possible treatment and way forward with me and phoning later during the day with the lab results and sending through a prescription for medication. Extreme professionalism and empathy all around. It is of great reassurance that they are only a phone call away. Thank you, AGMS, I will definately make use of your services again.

Frequently Asked Questions
This can only be established by a medical professional. The best option is to call for or schedule a virtual consultation. A medical doctor on call will advise what options are available and nearest to you. In most circumstances you can be effectively assisted at your place of accommodation or home, however, there are times when a trip to the ER is unavoidable. Our doctors can perform onsite ECGs(Electrocardiograms), draw bloods, administer injections / medication / IV fluids and even attended to minor suturing / wound care. We will also assist in the process from referral to admission.
Almost all travel insurances cover our fees in full.
In many cases we work directly with your medical insurance company.
In most cases you will need to settle your account and our team will provide all the documentation to reclaim from your insurance. For local medical aids it will depend on which medical aid provider you use and plan you on. Most local SA medical aids will cover your consultation fee, or part thereof, however, they will most likely not cover the call out fee.
Our consultation fee start at around R700 per consult, and our call out fee is from R1800 for central Cape Town within a 20km radius. Please note, there will be additional charges for procedures done and consumable / stock used, extended consultations, as well as weekends/public holidays/ after hours. Fees are cover by most travel insurances. Payment will need to be settled up front and claimed back. The same applies with medical aid clients.
At AGMS your virtual consultation includes prescriptions and sick notes. Arranging for lab tests and other medical services are common place for our panel of expert physicians manning our virtual desk.
You cannot simply order a prescription online or via telephone. You will have to undertake some form of doctor’s consultation either in person or through a virtual means. AGMS has a set of highly trained medical doctors and support staff that can help you either telephonically, through a complete virtual consultation or even in person wherever you are staying.
A virtual doctor’s consultation is similar to that of an in person doctor’s visit, only the patient speaks to the doctor using their smartphone, tablet or PC. This realtime video conferencing has been made popular by the covid era but has seen stable growth over the last two decades not just in South Africa, but across the globe.
