MEET DR THERDEN VAN HEERDEN
I am a medical practitioner who completed my undergraduate training in South Africa and subsequently gained clinical experience in the United Kingdom and Canada. During this time, I developed an interest in the assessment and management of patients presenting with persistent pain.
My clinical background includes experience working alongside anaesthesia services, which informed my understanding of procedural approaches to pain management within appropriate clinical settings.
I later combined this interest with general practice, where I managed patients with a wide range of pain-related conditions. I am currently involved in the assessment and management of patients with chronic pain as part of the multidisciplinary team at the PAIN Breede Valley Clinic.
