Fewer deliveries, less admin
Instead of chasing five suppliers for gloves, gauze, pouches and aprons, you send one list and get one delivery. Reception stops signing for three separate vans on a Tuesday morning.
Feedback from GP rooms, clinics and frail care homes that moved repeat consumables and equipment onto a fixed ordering cycle with Yak Medical.
We used to run out of gauze and sterile pouches mid-month and send someone to a local supplier. Now the wound care pack arrives on the same week every month, and the dressing room never sits empty.
We were opening a second consulting room and did not want to order the couch, trolley and diagnostic set from three different places. One list, one quote, and the fittings were confirmed before we paid anything.
Gloves and masks by the case made a real difference to our monthly spend, and the mixed sizes actually match what our carers use. Delivery to KwaZulu-Natal has been reliable since we set up the standing order.

Ratings are collected from practices that have placed at least two orders with us, across Gauteng, the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal.
Practice managers usually have a running list on the desk: gloves that ran low, gauze for the dressing room, a replacement trolley, a mobility aid for a frail care resident. Email that list and we will confirm sizes, compatible accessories and stock before anything ships from Johannesburg or Cape Town.
Standing orders for repeat items can be set up at the same time, so the monthly restock does not need a new email every cycle.

Most practices come to us with the same problem: too many small orders, too many suppliers, and a storeroom that never quite matches what the week actually needs. These are the outcomes our clients notice after a few months of ordering through Yak Medical.
Instead of chasing five suppliers for gloves, gauze, pouches and aprons, you send one list and get one delivery. Reception stops signing for three separate vans on a Tuesday morning.
Monthly standing orders for repeat items mean the dressing room, examination rooms and reception are restocked on a fixed schedule. You stop running out of saline on a Friday afternoon.
Before anything ships, we check glove sizes, cuff fittings on diagnostic sets, and whether a mobility aid will fit through your consulting room door. Returns drop when the details are right the first time.
Gloves, syringes, gauze and IV lines are priced by the case, so a busy clinic and a two-room GP practice both get a rate that reflects what they actually use. No surprise line items on the quote.
Orders ship from Johannesburg or Cape Town, with same-week delivery across Gauteng, the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal. Frail care homes and day hospitals get the same window as city practices.
Practice managers get a single written quote by email covering the full list, with substitutions flagged where a compatible accessory or different size is available. Approve it once and the order moves.
If you want to see how these outcomes map to a specific setup, the use cases walk through a GP practice, a frail care home and a small day hospital. The full catalogue lists what is available for each.
