What Health in Motion Can Assist You With:

Don’t Delay, Have Your Sports Injury Seen to Straight Away!

Sports such as golf, tennis or swimming, that require repetitive movement of the arms, can cause long-term conditions such as ‘tennis elbow’ or a Glenoid Labrum Tear for example – these types of injuries can cause long term damage if not treated straight away. When it comes to more physical sports such as rugby, those once-off, high-impact injuries can lead to dislocated shoulders and rotator cuff tears, which should also be treated as soon as possible. As a sports doctor, Sachin is experienced in treating these common athletic injuries and has an excellent track record for the fast recovery of his patients.

Our Happy Clients

I really wanted to thank all those involved in the day that I broke my arm. From start to finish my experience was incredible. The guys from ER24, Kenneth and Vicky, who made the trip from Mlazi to Gateway a good one. To all of the staff at Gateway hospital, who were accommodating, from my friends who visited at crazy hours, to making me toasted sarms when I was hungry. Meeting Dr Baba - what a great guy. He explained everything to me as to what was going to happen and always kept my wife in the loop. Even taking her cellphone number to be able to contact her straight after the surgery. He was exceptional. Then I need to thank you, Pippa. Sometimes as pro sportsman we take for granted how all of the arrangements are made and how we are fitted into busy hospital schedules. Thank you for all your frantic calls to get me the ambulance and get me the room and arranging the surgeon. Thanks again for everything.

Morning Sachin - I’ve been meaning to message you a while but I generally think of it late at night. My shoulder op is really doing well. Those identical muscles on either shoulder I was complaining about finally settled. So I’m playing a lot of golf, 4 times a week and doing Pilates twice. So really happy with what you did (will not forget I “angered” you by not coming sooner, making your work harder), and wanted to report back again and say “You are a star”. So appreciate your God given gifting and ability. Bless you my friend, may you continue being the man you are in the medical field, one I respect greatly and no doubt many others also."

“Dearest Sachin, You have mine and my Dad’s sincere appreciation and gratitude. You were gracious with your time and availability when his shoulder needed attention. Thank you for your reassurance and guidance at the time. He has returned to his swimming at gym and his spinning bike in preparation to condition prior to his knee replacement with John. Your thorough and sincere approach to all the patients that I send your way make a multi-disciplined approach such a privilege. Thank you Sachin.”

“Dr Baba was very professional, transparent and comforting during my consultation with him. He attended to my queries with care and precision. I would strongly recommend him. He advised me on further processes and options honestly, instead of suggesting surgery (which would benefit him in terms of business). I am very grateful and impressed with the service and due diligence shown.”

Thank you most sincerely for all the help, medical care and attention you have given to Joshua. Thank you also for your untiring attention you have given my family. Knowing that you are there for us has made this all so much easier.

Dr Baba is a great guy. He explained everything to me as to what was going to happen and always kept my wife in the loop. Even taking her cellphone number to be able to contact her straight after the surgery. He was exceptional.

To Dr Sachin Baba, Thank you for your patience and compassion with mum. Blessings.
