Phikwe Government Hospital Hit By Shortage Of Specialists

As a result the waiting period for gynae clinic at the hospital is eight months. The biggest challenge is that the gynae patients are booked at Nyangabgwe Referral Hospital where the waiting period runs to 2021. For now, the only specialist service provided is that of a physician.

Moreover, the Laundromat at the hospital has also not been operating for a year and laundry is currently done at other health facilities outside town, which comes at a cost.
