Annemie Venter
Radiation TherapistI have 20 years’ plus experience in my profession having worked in various oncology facilities.

Motto:
“Harmony makes small things grow, lack of it makes great things decay.”
Purpose:
In my first few years in this profession I became aware of a growing passion to improve the quality of life of cancer patients. I am driven by the knowledge that our profession and technology saves lives, and reduces pain and suffering of those who are terminally ill. My conviction to make a difference every day lead me to do a Master’s degree in health education with my thesis devoted to improved and focused healthcare for cancer patients with head and neck cancer. I have learned so much about the human spirit and the effect we can have on the lives of others that I am able to draw from that in my personal life and my relationships with loved ones, friends and fellow human beings. People are God’s ultimate creation.
