Dr Jan Joubert – Orthopaedic Surgeon – Stellenbosch

Dr Jan Joubert practices as an Orthopaedic Surgeon at Mediclinic Winelands Orthopaedic Day Clinic in Stellenbosch. He earned his MBChB from Stellenbosch University in 1987 and completed specialist training—MMed (Orthopaedics) and FCS Orth (SA)—by 2001. Consequently, he has over three decades of surgical expertise. Moreover, he pioneered the anterior minimally invasive surgery (AMIS) hip replacement technique in South Africa in 2007. Therefore, patients benefit from shorter hospital stays and accelerated recovery timelines. Additionally, he holds visiting fellowships with international centres, where he refined techniques in computer‑assisted implant positioning and 3D preoperative planning. As such, he blends time‑honoured principles with cutting‑edge innovations.

Furthermore, Dr Joubert led orthopaedic services in multiple private and academic settings before focusing on day‑clinic care. He regularly mentors registrars and contributes peer‑reviewed research on hip biomechanics. Consequently, his practice remains at the forefront of evidence‑based protocols. Altogether, patients receive both personalised attention and global best practices in joint reconstruction.
