Meet Dr Leah Murray

I am fascinated by people, by the human body, the mind. Everything about it is miraculous to me.

I qualified from Stellenbosch University Medical School in 2008 and then spent years working in Emergency Medicine and trauma units in South Africa and the UK.
This deepened my desire to know more about Preventative Medicine, so I did multiple post graduate studies in Integrative and Functional medicine.

Dr Leah Murray

I am a General Practitioner (GP) with a special interest in Integrative and Functional Medicine. My conventional training included graduating from The University of Stellenbosch as a medical doctor in 2006 and my governmental service years were completed in Springbok and Cape Town.

I worked in Emergency Medicine in government and public hospitals in South Africa and the UK.
