Welcome to Our Doctors at Palmwell
Dr Wade Palmer
BSc General, MBChB (Wits)
Wade Luke Palmer – DOCTOR
Dr Wade Luke Palmer, Director of Palmwell Medical Centre, possesses an innate sense of compassion for community that blossomed at an early age. Growing up in a family with a heart for service, rooted within the Cape Flats, and having worked in the rural Northwest Province, Dr Palmer witnessed first-hand the disparities in healthcare access and the impact it had on families and communities. This early exposure to inequality sparked a fire within Dr Palmer to dedicate their life to the pursuit of equitable healthcare for all.
Driven by the desire to make a difference, Dr Palmer pursued a medical education with unwavering determination. Graduating from The University of Witwatersrand in 2014 with a BSc Degree and 2017 with his MBChB Medical degree, he emerged as a proficient physician armed with not only medical knowledge but also a profound understanding of the importance of a holistic approach to overall well-being.
Dr Palmer aims to provide solutions to improving access to affordable quality healthcare for people from all socio-economic groups through the use of technology and multi-stake holder involvement.
