Family clinics inject hope for stressed public health system
It’s common enough when seeking outpatient services at large public hospitals to arrive at 5am for a queue token for an appointment to see a doctor sometime around 2pm.
The overwhelming number of people seeking medical treatment at the better-equipped facilities in the cities has led to crowding and placed tremendous pressure on resources. Long queues and hours spent waiting to see a doctor are everyday complaints.
