Pasiënte sit Vrydag en wag buite ’n dokter se spreekkamer by die Shoprite-winkelsentrum in Blue Downs. In ’n kennisgewing op die deur word mense gewaarsku dat as hulle onlangs oorsee gereis het of vermoed hulle is met die koronavirus besmet, moet hulle eers bel voor hulle die spreekkamer besoek. Net tien pasiënte word op ’n slag toegelaat. FOTO: BRENDEN RUITER

he late Elsies River obstetrician and gynaecologist Dr Carol Thomas was honoured with a lifetime achievement award by the SA Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (Sasog) on Monday 9 March. Sasog membership and nominations committee chairperson Dr Malikah van der Schyff described Thomas as an excellent and beloved obstetrician and gynaecologist who
mentored many young specialists and assisted them through difficult times. Thomas has served in Elsies River, where she was raised, for about 30 years. “Her manner and spirit inspired many and healed many. As a pioneer and leader in women’s health, we remember her as a kind, inspiring soul who cared about each of us as women, no matter what, who or where we came from – or where we were going to.

And after we lost her, so many patients will say how lost they feel and they would relate how they were treated with dignity and respect at The Women’s Space,” Van der Schyff added. Thomas was 58-yearsold when she died of complications following a double lung transplant on 12 April last year. She is survived by her sister, Gail Thomas, her son Adam Thomas-James and her life partner, Alison Gray.
