How MediGuard is keeping our customers healthy.
“Never paid a single cent”
“We’ve been using MediGuard since it was launched. Unlimited doctors visits, medication and tests covered. We never paid a single cent so far for all consultations, medicines and tests. Our whole family have consulted not once but several times at no cost. Best product! Big up to DuePoint and its partners.”
Patrick & Phume Luthuli, Johannesburg
“I was very satisfied with the quality”
“I have medical aid with another company, but they do not pay for things like doctors and dentist visits, which is why I also got MediGuard so that I had a more comprehensive solution.
I recently needed to go to the dentist and went onto the Unity Health website to find a dentist in my area. I was very surprised to see how many options there were in my area.
I went for the appointment and was very satisfied with the quality of the service that I received, and that I did not have to pay anything out of my own pocket.”
Beverley Wharton-Hood, Randpark Ridge
“It was paid shortly after”
“I got the MediGuard product. I had to go for a blood test and it reflected quickly as a claim on my Unity Health app and also was paid shortly after that.”
Gwen Janse van Rensburg, Boksburg
“It did not cost me a cent”
“I had an abscess on my back. From past experience with previous medical aids, I always had to pay a substantial amount. I went to our MediGuard doctor. He did the procedure in his consulting rooms and provided me with painkillers and antibiotics. The best part is: it did not cost me a cent!”
Marcia Faurie, Alberton
