Meet Dr Smit
Dr Smit is very passionate about minimal invasive surgery. After completing his training as a specialist surgeon at the University of Pretoria, he worked for 4 years in a high-volume bariatric surgery unit to train as bariatric surgeon. He has also worked alongside Dr Francois Schutte, a very experienced upper GIT and bariatric surgeon, to learn the art of gastric and esophageal surgery.
He is also married and has 3 boys. In his spare time, he loves to go on overlanding explorations with his family. He is also a very keen cyclist and avid cricket fan.
