✨ Let’s make this your healthiest year yet!

New year. Same commitment to better movement.

19/12/2025

It’s tempting to hit pause on your routine over the holidays - but staying active is oh-so-worth-it.

✅ Keeps your joints and muscles mobile
Regular movement prevents stiffness and keeps nagging pain from creeping in.

✅ Supports your mental health
Exercise boosts endorphins - helping you beat holiday stress and mood dips.

✅ Counters festive indulgence
Staying active helps balance out all the eating, lounging and bubbly.

✅ Reduces risk of injury
Staying strong and mobile helps you avoid sprains, falls and flare-ups.

✅ Maintains your progress
Don’t let weeks of effort go to waste - momentum matters.

Daily walks, a quick stretch, or a fun game of padel… JUST MOVE!

Today marks a deeply meaningful milestone at Orthosport.
As Dr Hannes Jonker completes his final theatre list for 2025, he shares the moment with someone central to his surgical journey: his long-time anaesthetist, colleague, and friend, Dr Martin Mulder.

In Dr Jonker’s own words:

“I had the privilege of sharing 15 years in private practice with Dr Martin Mulder, my sidekick and anaesthetist for the very last time.
Over the past 15 years, we have done thousands of cases together. In that time, he has been the definition of a true professional: dedicated, reliable, never late (really…), always prepared, with a calm presence and a great sense of humour.

For me, this is not just saying goodbye to a colleague in theatre. I feel as if I’m saying goodbye to a pillar of strength, knowledge, and support in my practice. Martin has been an integral part of my journey – from the early, uncertain days to where we are now, running a high-volume, highly efficient theatre service.

He is so much more than ‘just’ an anaesthetist. He genuinely cares about our patients, sees the person behind every case, and has served this community for 34 years with quiet excellence and integrity.

As he retires at the end of this year, I want to say a sincere and heartfelt thank you, Martin. Thank you for your mentorship, your patience, your friendship, and for always having my back in theatre.
It has been an honour to work with you.
Wishing you health, joy and many good years ahead in this next chapter. You will be missed – by me, by our team, and by the many patients whose lives you helped change for the better.”

As Dr Mulder steps into his well-earned retirement after more than three decades of service, we honour a man whose professionalism and compassion elevated every theatre he stepped into.
Thank you, Dr Mulder, for the legacy of care you leave behind - a legacy felt not only in outcomes, but in the countless moments of calm, trust, and humanity you brought to each day.
Your impact will be remembered for years to come.
