O

pen since March, Mediclinic’s latest state-of-the-art hospital – Mediclinic
Midstream – serves the growing community in Centurion’s new Midstream

attention to detail to create an innovative, patient-centric medical centre that is the finest
in South Africa. Mediclinic Midstream combines the latest global medical technology
with operationally sound environmental best practices to service the growing community
of more than 4,500 families in the area.
