Dr Marius Spangenberg – Paediatrician – Die Wilgers

Dr Marius Spangenberg is a highly experienced Paediatrician based at Life Wilgers Hospital in Die Wilgers, Pretoria. He completed his MBChB and later earned his MMed in Paediatrics from the University of Pretoria. With more than 30 years in private practice, he has developed deep clinical insight into childhood diseases and developmental conditions.

From the beginning of his medical career, Dr Spangenberg focused on creating a supportive environment for children and their families. He believes that paediatric care goes far beyond diagnosing illness—it also involves educating parents, identifying subtle health concerns early, and guiding families through every stage of child development. His calm, approachable manner puts children at ease, even in clinical settings.

Over the years, he has developed a special interest in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Because of this focus, he stays updated on the latest research and applies both medical and behavioural strategies in treatment. As a result, he provides a balanced and structured plan for children with ADHD, helping them succeed both medically and socially.

Besides his medical practice, Dr Spangenberg enjoys creative hobbies such as photography, woodwork, and portrait painting. These activities reflect the same attention to detail and patience that define his clinical approach. He brings both skill and sensitivity to his interactions with young patients, ensuring a personalised experience.
