The cost of a gynaecologist consultation in Durban depends on the practice and the appointment, with tests or procedures potentially charged separately. For Dr Timmal’s current fee, contact reception on 060 971 1251 and ask what the quote includes. This page does not publish an unverified fixed price.
Dr Timmal’s current consulting rooms are at Isipingo Hospital and St Augustine’s Hospital. Confirm your appointment location and the applicable fee when booking.
Why the total can differ from the consultation fee
A first assessment, follow-up visit and a procedure are not necessarily priced in the same way. A consultation may lead to a recommendation for a scan, laboratory test or other investigation. Ask whether these are included, charged by the practice or billed by another provider.
You can request a breakdown before deciding on non-urgent care. Tell the clinician if cost affects what you can manage so that the proposed next step can be discussed clearly. Do not assume that a routine appointment includes every possible test.
Medical aid and payment questions
Check your particular plan with your medical aid. Ask about benefits, network requirements, referrals, authorisation and possible amounts payable by you. A statement that a practice “accepts medical aid” is not a guarantee that your entire account will be paid.
Keep the practice’s quote and your scheme’s response together. Confirm whether the quote is still valid on the appointment date and whether an authorisation reference is needed.
What to tell reception
- Whether this is a first consultation or a follow-up.
- Whether the visit concerns pregnancy, a procedure or an existing treatment plan.
- Which consulting room you would like to attend.
- Whether you need clarification about documents, payment or referral arrangements.
Avoid including detailed medical history in a general enquiry form. Reception can advise how to share relevant information with the clinical team.
Book with the correct location
Our contact page lists the active rooms and current numbers. You can also review the services available before enquiring. Ask for advice promptly if you have symptoms; severe pain, heavy bleeding or feeling seriously unwell should be assessed urgently rather than delayed for fee comparisons.
