About the Doctor
Dr. Tanja Robbertse
MBChB, DCH
My heart for paediatrics is deeply personal. I was born with a congenital heart defect called the Tetralogy of Fallot, and underwent surgery at the ages of two and thirteen. Growing up surrounded by doctors, nurses, hospitals, and needles gave me a unique perspective — I truly understand what it feels like to be on the other side of the table.
Through it all, I can only see my life as a miracle, and I am deeply grateful to God for guiding me into this calling. That is why I named this practice New Life Medical — because not only is every child a precious new life, but my prayer is that every family who walks through these doors may experience the new life that is found in Christ. As Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them."
Let us be inspired by our little ones. It is my privilege to care for them.
