While you’re looking after your patients,
the last thing you should be worried about is scheduling appointments, billing, claims, reporting and banking.
Investec has more than 30 years’ experience working with medical professionals and we understand the stress, time constraints and administrative challenges that come with this profession.
We are proud to introduce Astrocyte – an integrated digital practice management solution that will be offered exclusively to our medical professional clients with a Private Bank Account. Astrocyte is a market-leader in this field and through our established partnership and promotion, Investec is introducing another innovative concept to our clients.
Everything you need to effectively run your practice is available on this one platform - you no longer need multiple systems.

Please note that Astrocyte is currently only available to general practitioners and orthopaedic surgeons. Other specialist disciplines to follow in due course.
I thrive in a work environment that is well structured and organised. Practice Management software should facilitate a structured, mobile friendly clinical life, so that I can peacefully focus on what matters - my patients.
