    Psychiatry - Quo Vadis?

    Psychiatry is unique amongst medical disciplines in embracing a truly holistic approach to patient assessment and care. However, in our desire for acceptance and credibility as a medical discipline, has Psychiatry strayed from what makes it unique? Has Psychiatry overcompensated biologically, in order to be viewed as truly medical? In this episode, we are joined by Prof Vikram Patel and Prof Suvira Ramlall. Community pharmacist Sham Moodley then explains the role that some pharmacists can play in counselling patients. Adcock Ingram

    Loneliness

    Imagine a condition that makes a person irritable, depressed and self-centred, and is associated with a 26% increase in the risk of premature mortality. Imagine too, that in industrialised countries around a third of people are affected by this condition... and that these proportions are increasing. Such a condition exists – loneliness. We are joined by Dorianne Weil and Liane Lurie for this episode. Adcock Ingram
