Concerns and complaints

Complaints about a registered practitioner’s conduct must be in writing, addressed to the Registrar of the relevant board, and signed, with the practitioner’s name if known, where and when it happened, and your contact details. The HPCNA does not award compensation, and conduct by someone who is not registered should be reported to the Namibian Police.
