Location
Excellentis Clinical Trial Consultants is based in George, known as “the heart of the Garden Route” at the foot of the Outiniqua mountains, a stone’s throw from the sea.
The office is located in York Street, approximately 15 minute’s drive from George Airport.
Within a radius of 150 km from George, prominent towns such as Mossel Bay, Oudtshoorn and Knysna provide a significant number of volunteers and participants for clinical research studies.
The area has a well-developed health system, on both private and governmental levels.
A well equipped Phase I Unit, suitable for performing first-in-man or bio-equivalence clinical trials (with overnight facilities for in-house studies), is situated in close proximity.
We have access to accredited Radiological and Pathological services, with extensive experience in clinical trials.
