Dr Musa Mthombeni shared the exciting news on his Instagram page, where he expressed joy and gratitude for finally finishing this long and demanding journey in medicine.
He wrote: “Vukani! Sekunjalo! Daddies are up! After over a year of very early morning, parking lot complaints about people wanting to scratch my #class, late nights in angiotheatre and probably consuming way too much cottee, I’ve officially wrapped up my sub-specialty training in Interventional Neuroradiology / Endovascular Neurosurgery.
Translation: I am now a fully qualified Neurointerventionist. Yes, you can trust me around your brain’s blood vessels. Phakathi inside!
I am so excited to step into this next chapter, apply these skills, and changing some lives in a field I have absolutely fallen in love with.
A big thank you to Dr Ro (If I know what I’m doing today, it’s entirely his fault), my colleagues, my mentors, my incredible wife (who deserves a medal for putting up with my fellowship schedule and me doing unscheduled DSAs every 2 days ), and my family. I couldn’t have done it without your unwavering support-and your tolerance of me talking about blood vessels 24/7.
Time to get to work!”
His message showed both excitement and relief as he celebrated completing a very intense training period. He also took time to thank his mentors, colleagues, friends, and family for supporting him throughout the journey.
Dr Musa is widely known not only for his work in medicine but also as a media personality in South Africa. His achievement as a Neurointerventionist marks a new chapter in his professional life, where he will now focus on treating complex conditions involving the brain’s blood vessels.
In addition to this milestone, it was also noted that in July 2025, he officially became a Master of Medicine graduate. He completed his Master of Medicine in Diagnostic Radiology from the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits).
This latest achievement highlights his continued growth in the medical field and his dedication to advancing his skills.
