Throughout the many years, the Health Professions Council of SA has been urging the public to be on the look-out for bogus doctors. The council says many South Africans fall victim to fraudulent medical practitioners.
The recent call comes after the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and police recently uncovered two allegedly bogus doctors in the Northern Cape while last month, four bogus practitioners have been arrested in connection with illegal and unregistered practices in Silverton, Pretoria.
