Medical Professionals at MyRehab Addiction Recovery Centre
At MyRehab Addiction Recovery Centre, with facilities in both Benoni and Johannesburg, lasting recovery begins with strong medical care. Addiction is more than a psychological struggle — it is a condition that affects both the mind and the body. That is why we provide a full medical team, four highly experienced doctors, and a dedicated nursing staff who work together to identify and treat the root causes of addiction. Our patients benefit from medical oversight, psychiatric support, and personalized care plans that strengthen their chances of long-term recovery. By combining physical and mental healthcare, MyRehab gives every individual a safe and structured environment for transformation.
Comprehensive Medical Oversight at an Addiction Recovery Centre
Recovery requires more than therapy. At MyRehab Addiction Recovery Centre, we provide: 24/7 nursing care to ensure patients’ safety, comfort, and health needs are met; four doctors with specialized skills in psychiatry, chronic conditions, and preventative medicine; and a treatment philosophy that focuses on the whole person — mind, body, and emotional wellbeing. This integrated model makes MyRehab one of the leading Addiction Recovery Centres in Johannesburg and Benoni.
Why Medical Professionals Are Essential in Addiction Treatment
Medical oversight allows us to manage withdrawal safely, stabilize patients during detox, and address any underlying health conditions that could complicate recovery. Our team ensures that treatment is not just about abstaining from substances, but about restoring health, balance, and quality of life.

Holistic Healing at an Addiction Recovery Centre
Our doctors and nurses work closely with psychologists, counselors, and therapists to design treatment that goes beyond short-term stabilization. We address physical health, emotional struggles, and mental wellbeing, ensuring every patient has the tools for lasting recovery.
Safe Detox and Medical Supervision
Detox can be dangerous without medical care. At MyRehab Addiction Recovery Centre, detox is supervised by doctors and nurses, allowing withdrawal to take place in a safe, controlled environment. This medical support reduces risks and prepares patients for the therapeutic stages of recovery.
Individualized Treatment for Every Patient
No two recovery journeys are the same. Our doctors assess each patient thoroughly to create personalized treatment plans. By tailoring medical care to the individual, we maximize the chances of long-term recovery and relapse prevention.
