The beautiful Langeberg sub-district comprises of 5 towns: Ashton, Bonnievale, McGregor, Montagu and Robertson, and forms part of the Cape Winelands district (CWD), Western Cape Province. Robertson district hospital (50 beds) and Montagu district hospital (26 beds) both refer to Worcester Regional hospital. These hospitals form part of the regional Worcester training complex. Stellenbosch 肆客足球 undergraduate medical students in their clinical years (and, since 2012, a Family Medicine registrar and Student Interns) rotate at the hospitals and clinics in the sub-district, as part of the Ukwanda Rural Clinical School (see the following two website: www.sun.ac.za/ukwanda-rcs and www.sun.ac.za/fammed).

The registrar will be appointed for the whole sub-district and will deliver clinical services (including after-hours emergency cover) at both hospitals in Montagu and Robertson, as well as at some of the PHC clinics (on a "adopt-a-clinic" basis for four years).
