Ormond Neuroscience is a neuropsychology-led practice based in Johannesburg, focused on understanding and supporting brain function across illness, injury, and ageing. We test, we diagnose, and we treat.

About Ormond Neuroscience
Ormond Neuroscience provides specialised neuropsychological services through the expertise of an experienced clinical neuropsychologist, supported by a multidisciplinary team including educational psychology, psychometry, and administrative staff.
Our work spans both structural brain conditions — such as stroke and traumatic brain injury — and functional disturbances of brain systems, including depression, anxiety, and related conditions. When difficulties are rooted in brain function, regulation, or adaptation, they fall within our scope.
We are based at Netcare Rehabilitation Hospital in Johannesburg and work within a multidisciplinary rehabilitation environment alongside physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and neurology.
How we think about brain-related problems
Brain function cannot be understood by scans or diagnoses alone.
While structural injury and disease matter, many difficulties arise from disruptions in how brain systems regulate cognition, emotion, movement, autonomic function, sleep, and mental effort over time.
Neuropsychology sits at the interface between brain structure and lived experience. Our role is to clarify what is happening, why it matters, and which interventions are most appropriate — whether the goal is recovery, stabilisation, or long-term adaptation.
Even when there is no simple cure, accurate understanding often brings relief, direction, and better decision-making.
Clinical neuropsychology focus and professional services
Our primary focus is clinical work: assessment, diagnosis, and treatment.
This includes comprehensive neuropsychological assessment, differential diagnosis of cognitive, emotional, and behavioural symptoms, and the development of targeted, evidence-informed intervention plans.
We also provide functional capacity evaluations for insurers, as well as medicolegal assessment and expert testimony in court matters.
Each case is approached individually, with care taken to ensure that conclusions and recommendations are proportionate, clinically justified, and appropriate to the person’s circumstances.
Neuroharmonics
Neuroharmonics is our structured brain health programme, designed to support the regulation and integration of brain systems across cognitive, emotional, motor, and physiological domains.
It may be appropriate for individuals recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, or other neurological conditions; people experiencing persistent cognitive or emotional difficulties despite normal investigations; mood and regulation difficulties; autism spectrum–related challenges; dysautonomia; and adults under sustained cognitive or emotional strain.
Neuroharmonics does not aim to force change or promise cures. Its purpose is to support the biological and psychological conditions under which the brain is most likely to function adaptively and optimally.
Our Patients & Collaborators
We work primarily with individuals experiencing brain-related difficulties, and also collaborate with referring doctors, families and caregivers, attorneys involved in personal injury and medicolegal matters, insurers assessing disability and functional capacity, and organisations or businesses concerned about employees’ cognitive health.
If you are dealing with changes in thinking, memory, mood, or behaviour — whether sudden or gradual — you do not need hype or exaggerated promises. You need clarity.
Our role is to help you understand what is happening and to work with you toward appropriate next steps.
