##BogusHealthWorkers| SAMATU calls for strict measures in safeguarding the health profession

Speaking to Nghamula Chauke, the South African Medical Association Trade Union's General Secretary Dr Cedric Sihlangu expressed concern on the increasing number of bogus health professionals. He says the health department must find ways to curb this problem before it spirals out of control. Dr Sihlangu says it is sad that when these doctors are not found and dealt with legally, poor patients will be the ones to bear the brunt of these corrupt activities.
