Not many people can claim “doctor,” “pastor,” “entrepreneur,” and “philanthropist” on the same curriculum vitae—let alone before the age of 30. But for Dr Andile Molokomme, a Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University (SMU) alumna, these roles aren’t separate; they’re woven into one mission: to lead with purpose and impact lives.
Now 29, Molokomme is the founder of Dr Andie Family Practice in Pretoria North, a primary care clinic that’s redefining community health. “It’s not just about treatment, it’s about early screening, patient education, and empowering people to take charge of their health,” she explains.
But that’s only part of the story. With a passion for wellness that goes beyond the stethoscope, she launched AndiBeauty—a cosmetics brand rooted in empowerment. That vision has since evolved into the AndiBeauty Spa, which now offers medical aesthetic services led by Molokomme herself. She recently completed her Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Medical Aesthetics at FPD—graduating Cum Laude. “I didn’t want to create another beauty brand,” she says. “I wanted to build something that inspires confidence and blends inner health with outer care.”
Whether behind a clinic desk or in front of a camera, Molokomme commands her platforms with clarity and compassion. As the host of Medical Insights on LoveWorld SAT, and a regular voice on Power FM, Thobela FM, and Ga-Rankuwa FM, she’s bringing health literacy to the mainstream. “If people don’t understand their health, they can’t manage it. That’s why communication matters.”
Still, for all her titles and accolades, her proudest work is what she’s done for the next generation. At just 17, she founded the Phenomenal Young Persons NPO (181-231)—long before earning her medical degree, developing business plans, or making broadcast appearances. “Before I was a doctor or entrepreneur, I was a philanthropist,” she says.
The organisation has since reached over 45,000 young people across 10 institutions, offering mentorship, academic awards, and entrepreneurship training. In May 2025, she took 130 learners from her former school, Lethabong Secondary, to the SMU Open Day. “Exposure breeds aspiration,” she insists. “When you show kids what’s possible, they begin to believe they belong in those spaces.”
The NPO is now preparing to launch an online entrepreneurship course and expand across five African countries. At the same time, Molokomme is building AndiBeauty Spa into a leading wellness brand, combining aesthetics with purpose. “Right now, I’m growing the clinic, scaling the spa, mentoring students, and building a digital education platform,” she says. “Leadership is not about being busy—it’s about being impactful. I wake up every day to live that mission.” As an SMU alumna, Molokomme embodies the university’s mission to produce graduates who lead with purpose and redefine healthcare and wellness on the continent.
