Shocking! Almost 200 posts for doctors and specialists remain unfilled at Gauteng’s four academic hospitals — and many of these posts are likely to remain empty, the health department says
Posted on Leave a comment
Gauteng hospitals can only fill half of its critical medical staff vacancies — positions that normally go to doctors, specialists and nurses, Gauteng health department deputy director general for clinical services Richard Lebethe says.

Friedlander stresses: “The quality of care has plummeted.”
The psychiatrist is part of a committee of hospital doctors who have asked the provincial health department to unfreeze th
