Following completion of its annual survey in the Limpopo province, consulting, research and risk management company, PMR.africa has awarded Netcare Pholoso Hospital a Diamond Arrow Award – the highest possible rating – in the private hospitals category.
The awards ceremony took place earlier this month at the Sun Meropa Conference Centre in Polokwane.

The PMR.africa awards are the culmination of a research process whereby companies and institutions were rated against what they have done to enhance the economic growth and development of the province, their level of managerial expertise, implementation of corporate governance, brand awareness, and innovation.
The managing director of Netcare’s hospital division, Jacques du Plessis, congratulated the doctors practising at the hospital as well as the staff members and the management on the external recognition for organisational excellence.
“In the two years since its opening, Netcare Pholoso Hospital has established itself as an integral part of Polokwane and the greater Limpopo province and made a significant impact in clinical excellence and service delivery to the community,” says Du Plessis.
Commenting on the award, Sydney Masalla, general manager of Netcare Pholoso Hospital said: “We are honoured to have been recognised as the top private hospital in the Limpopo province. This award serves as affirmation that the team at the hospital is doing an exceptional job in upholding and delivering on Netcare’s values of care, dignity, participation, truth and passion. I would like to thank our supporting doctors and hospital staff for their on-going commitment to quality care and patient satisfaction.”
“The fact that the awards are based on positive feedback from people in our province makes it all the more special. We are grateful for the support we’ve had from the community, and are committed to continue providing our patients with professional, patient-centred care,” he concludes.
