5 Best Urologists in Johannesburg (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Elara Kestrel
By Elara Kestrel, Health and Medical Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 8 min read

Blood in your urine, a kidney stone that won't quit, or a prostate check you've been putting off, none of it waits for a convenient time. The urologists in Johannesburg on this page carry ratings between 4.6 and 5, and one name alone accounts for over half the 191 reviews behind the list. That kind of volume, next to a rating that never drops below 4.6, is the closest thing to a track record patients can actually check before they call.

Short answer: Dr Thirusha Reddy in Parktown leads with 4.6 stars across 106 reviews, the most of any urologist we checked. Dr Sumesh Padayachee (4.8, 35 reviews) at Netcare Rosebank and Dr Kevin Ramsamy (5.0, 18 reviews) in Sandton both carry near-perfect or perfect ratings on smaller review counts. If you need pediatric urology or multiple location options, Dr Peter Afolayan covers Springs, Busamed, and Life Dalview.

  • Contracted into medical aid rates, according to one reviewer

Worth knowing

How We Rank These Urologists

Rating is the live Google average for each practice. Review volume shows how many patients have actually rated them, weighed against every other urologist we checked in Johannesburg. Confidence combines both, so a high average built on more reviews counts for more than one built on a handful. Recency tracks how recently people are still reviewing, a sign the experience described is still current. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

What Does a Urology Consultation Cost in Johannesburg? (2026)

Costs depend on whether you’re using medical aid or paying cash, whether the visit is a first consultation or a procedure, and which hospital or clinic the urologist is based at. Some practices, like Dr Padayachee’s, are contracted directly into medical aid rates, while others require you to claim back. Ask the practice for their consultation fee and medical aid status before you book.

Urology Care Across Johannesburg

This list covers Parktown, Rosebank, Sandton, Mayfair West, and practices reaching as far as Springs, so there’s a real option whether you’re closer to the northern suburbs or the East Rand. If you’re searching for a urologist near me in Johannesburg, weigh which hospital or clinic network is most convenient for follow-up visits and any procedures.

What to Ask Before You See a Urologist

  • What happens if I need urgent care and you’re not available?
  • Are you contracted with my medical aid, or will I need to claim back?
  • What does a typical treatment plan look like for my specific issue?
  • How soon will I get my test or scan results, and how will you share them?
  • Do you see pediatric patients if this is for my child?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these urologists?

We compared urology practices in Johannesburg with a real Google track record on rating, review volume, and how recently people are still reviewing them, then read the reviews for details on communication, procedures, and follow-up care.

How often is this updated?

We last verified this list in July 2026 and refresh it as ratings and review counts change.

Do I need a referral to see a urologist in Johannesburg?

It depends on your medical aid plan; some require a GP referral for a specialist visit to be covered, so check your plan’s rules first.

What conditions do urologists on this list treat?

Between them, the practices here cover kidney stones, prostate conditions, urinary incontinence, infertility, and pediatric urology, based on what’s listed on their own sites and described in reviews.

The Bottom Line

Dr Thirusha Reddy is the safe default given the volume and consistency of her reviews, especially for anyone dealing with recurring issues that haven’t resolved elsewhere. If you want an academically credentialed specialist at a private hospital, Dr Sumesh Padayachee or Dr Kevin Ramsamy are both worth a consultation. Confirm your medical aid coverage before you book, since rates vary by practice and by procedure.
