Mediclinic Tzaneen is undergoing a significant refurbishment and expansion, a carefully phased project set to unfold over the next 4 to 5 years. The extension will add 9,272m² of new space, with meticulous planning in place to ensure minimal disruption to hospital operations throughout construction. This long-term project is designed to enhance healthcare delivery while maintaining full operational continuity. The architectural vision centres on increasing capacity, elevating service levels, and placing patients at the heart of the experience, all while celebrating the natural beauty of Tzaneen. From generous natural light to intuitive spatial planning, every design choice supports a calm, efficient, and healing environment.
