About Medical Matters

From the publisher's feed

Is Mental Health Still an Afterthought in South Africa’s Healthcare System?
Despite rising awareness, mental health remains alarmingly sidelined in South Africa’s healthcare system. In this eye-opening episode of Psychological Matters, we confront the harsh reality: a chronic lack of investment, staggering mental health stats, and the deep economic and personal toll of untreated psychological conditions.
