Lowveld practitioner Dr Charl Pellissier died yesterday at the age of 68, with Nelmed Medicross paying tribute to an indispensable member of its medical team.

Born on December 3, 1957, Pellissier joined the Nelmed Medicross family in 2014 after relocating from the Eastern Cape.

He brought with him a love for family medicine and was consistently willing to walk the extra mile for his patients. He enjoyed working with the ‘Golden Oldies’ and believed that improving their quality of life with dignity and respect was very fulfilling.

Nelmed Medicross will miss his compassionate dedication and his contribution to Nelmed’s success, and its thoughts are with his family during this very sad time.

Arrangements regarding a funeral service have not yet been made publicly available.
