Getting to the Clinic From Soshanguve
From Soshanguve Blocks and Central: R80 (Mabopane Highway) south-east into Pretoria, then the N1 south to the Buccleuch interchange.
From Soshanguve South and the Winterveld side: R566 or the R80 to the N1 southbound.
From Akasia and Rosslyn: N1 southbound directly — the simplest line once you are on it.
From Mabopane and Ga-Rankuwa: R80 east, then the N1 south.
From the Hammanskraal side: N1 southbound the whole way.
By public transport: the Gautrain from Hatfield or Pretoria to Marlboro, then a short e-hailing trip.

From the Hammanskraal side: N1 southbound the whole way.
By public transport: the Gautrain from Hatfield or Pretoria to Marlboro, then a short e-hailing trip.
The R80 and the N1 southbound both carry heavy commuter traffic towards Johannesburg from before six in the morning, and the N1 northbound stacks up from mid-afternoon on the way home. Outside those windows the run is close to an hour. Inside them it can be half as long again.
Open 24 Hours, With or Without an Appointment
The clinic is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can book ahead if you want a fixed time, or simply arrive — no appointment is required.
From this distance the round-the-clock opening is what makes a single trip workable at all. Leaving mid-morning, or travelling in the evening, turns a day off work into a few hours.
The initial consultation is R2 500. That covers the full assessment described below. Any further care is discussed with you afterwards, and nothing is started without your agreement. For wider context see our guide to erectile dysfunction consultation costs in South Africa.
Start Remotely, Travel If It Will Change Something
Seventy-eight kilometres each way is a real commitment, and it is worth being straight about when it is not necessary.
A remote consultation covers the history, the pattern of the difficulty, the general health picture and a full medication review — most of what an assessment is. It costs the same and ends with the same clear recommendation about what should happen next. For a great many men in Soshanguve that is the whole of what they needed, and no motorway is involved.
The drive earns its place when the remote consultation points to something worth assessing in person, or when you would simply rather sit across a desk from someone for an hour.
Blood tests, where they are worthwhile, are arranged through a pathology laboratory. There are collection points across Soshanguve, Akasia and Pretoria North, so testing never requires the trip.
What a Naturopathic Assessment Actually Covers
The consultation works through the pattern of the difficulty — when it began, whether it came on gradually or suddenly, whether it happens in every situation, and whether morning erections have changed. It then looks at general health, blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol history, every prescription and supplement you take, and the sleep, alcohol, smoking and stress picture around it.
Where testing is worthwhile it is arranged through a pathology laboratory rather than done on site. Erectile dysfunction assessment and testing explains which tests are relevant and why.
What This Clinic Does Not Do
Erectile Dysfunction Clinic is a naturopathic practice. It does not prescribe PDE5 medication such as sildenafil or tadalafil, it does not give injections, it does not perform surgery, and it does not provide testosterone replacement therapy. Those belong to registered medical practitioners, and where one of them is the right route you will be told so directly rather than sold something else. Our comparison of a naturopath versus a urologist for erectile dysfunction sets out where each fits.
When to See a Doctor First, Not a Naturopath
The difficulty began within weeks of starting a new prescribed medicine — speak to the prescriber before changing anything.
You have chest pain, breathlessness, or pain in the legs on exertion. Erectile difficulty can be an early marker of cardiovascular disease.
An erection has lasted longer than four hours. That is an emergency — go to an emergency department.
The problem began suddenly after an injury, pelvic surgery, or a new neurological symptom.

Public-sector referral in this part of Tshwane runs through your local clinic or a GP, and urology services are available at academic hospitals including Dr George Mukhari in Ga-Rankuwa and Steve Biko in Pretoria. Where a physical cause needs investigating and cost is the barrier, that route is real and worth using.
Preparing for the Consultation
From this distance, preparation matters more than usual. Arriving with the following turns one visit into a complete one:
A list of every medicine and supplement you take.
Any blood test results from the past year or two, if you have them.
A rough sense of when the difficulty started and how it has changed since.
Any questions you want answered before you decide on anything.
Any blood test results from the past year or two, if you have them.
A rough sense of when the difficulty started and how it has changed since.
Any questions you want answered before you decide on anything.
What to expect at your first consultation covers the visit itself in more detail.
If You Cannot Travel
For Soshanguve this is the main route in, not a lesser option. It covers the same history and medication review as the first half of an in-person visit, ends with the same honest recommendation — including, where it applies, that an in-person assessment or a referral would genuinely add something — and saves two hours of driving. The areas we serve explains how it works.
A Private Self-Check
Before booking anything, a few questions worth answering honestly to yourself:
1. Has the difficulty been present for more than three months?
2. Do you still wake with erections most mornings?
3. Did it start gradually over months or years, rather than suddenly?
4. Do you have — or have you never been checked for — diabetes, high blood pressure or raised cholesterol?
5. Has anything changed recently in your medication, sleep, drinking or stress?
2. Do you still wake with erections most mornings?
3. Did it start gradually over months or years, rather than suddenly?
4. Do you have — or have you never been checked for — diabetes, high blood pressure or raised cholesterol?
5. Has anything changed recently in your medication, sleep, drinking or stress?
How to read this. A gradual onset with morning erections gone, especially alongside question 4, points towards physical contributors and is worth a proper assessment including blood tests. Difficulty that came on suddenly, in some situations but not others, with morning erections intact, more often has a psychological or situational component — which is treatable, and not a character failing. A recent change in medication belongs with the prescriber first.
This cannot tell you what is causing anything in your case, and it is not a diagnosis. If the difficulty is persistent or distressing, arrange a proper assessment. Seek urgent medical care for chest pain or breathlessness, and emergency care for an erection lasting longer than four hours.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is the clinic from Soshanguve?
Roughly 78 kilometres via the R80 and the N1 southbound to the Buccleuch interchange. About an hour outside peak, longer inside it.
Is there an erectile dysfunction clinic in Soshanguve?
Erectile Dysfunction Clinic has one practice, in Buccleuch, Sandton. Men from Soshanguve travel there or are seen remotely. There is no Soshanguve branch, and claiming one would be untrue.
Can I be assessed without driving to Sandton?
Yes, for most men. A remote consultation covers the history, the pattern of the difficulty and a full medication review, and you will be told if an in-person assessment would add something.
Does a remote consultation cost less?
The initial consultation is R2 500 either way. What changes is the travelling, not the assessment.
Can I get there without a car?
Yes. The Gautrain from Pretoria or Hatfield to Marlboro leaves only a short trip at the end, and because the clinic never closes, arrival time is not a problem.
Where would blood tests be done?
Through a pathology laboratory near you. There are collection points in Soshanguve, Akasia and Pretoria North, so testing happens close to home.
If you have not yet worked out what is behind the problem, start with our guide to erectile dysfunction or the possible causes of erectile dysfunction. Whether improvement lasts depends on the cause — is erectile dysfunction permanent sets out what can honestly be said.
