**Rural Allowance:** No

**Doctors Quarters:**

- No DQs
- None available

**Academics:**

- Lots of academic meetings – departmental presentations, CPD meetings, journal clubs, M&Ms.
- Average teaching  
More clinical experience

**Supervision:**

- There is always someone around that you can ask for help or to show you how to do something. You’re never alone.
- Average. More independent learning

**Clinical Exposure:**

- You can get as physically involved as you want to with doing procedures
- Learn to be independent

**Social Scene:**

- Lots of interns, some comm serves, everyone lives pretty close to the hospital, and it’s a student town so plenty of places to go out.
- Bustling social life with the university nearby.

**Additional Comments:**

- It’s a small town with student vibes, 1 and a half hour’s drive from Joburg and really not a bad place to spend two years of your life. You can make it a great experience for yourself if you go in with a positive attitude and motivation to out yourself out there.
- Not for individuals looking for an academic setting. Good for gaining clinical exposure and experience
