I was woken up at 2.30 in the morning on a Sunday by severe abdominal pains and feared a serious condition, so I contacted Gardmed who were quick to respond and examined me in my own lounge with ECG, blood pressure etc. and diagnosed that my blood pressure was at 'stroke level'. They advised I go to Hospital in Port Elizabeth to see a doctor. In the ambulance they administered a saline drip to reduce the chance of a stroke and then transported me to hospital. It was found that the problem was gastric related and no longer serious, so I was able to return home. I can't praise the cheerfulness and efficiency enough. Its a service everyone should know about. They looked after everything, medical aid clearance, hospital contact and delivery to the appropriate place in the hospital.
