Bongani Bingwa speaks with Dr. Mzu Theo Nodikida of the South African Medical Association as Gauteng doctors revolt against unpaid overtime. With 16-hour shifts, life-or-death decisions, and mounting pressure, many now face slashed pay despite rising demands. Legal action looms as warnings of resignations and service withdrawals raise alarms over the future of after-hours hospital care. A brewing crisis in an already strained healthcare system.
