Dr Glenn Colquhoun and Dr Art Nahill: doctors launch Hīkoi for Health to raise awareness over struggling health system - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

Sick of inaction from politicians around our ailing health system, two Kiwi doctors are taking matters into their own hands. 

GP Dr Glenn Colquhoun and general hospital physician Dr Art Nahill yesterday launched Hīkoi for Health: A People’s Inquiry.

They’ve hit the road in a bright yellow 'vanbulance' in a bid to protest the state of the health system - and collect stories from people who've been impacted by the health system.

"I've gradually seen conditions, both for patients and for healthcare providers, deteriorate - to the point where I didn't feel like I could bear anymore of what I would call moral injury from trying to treat and discharge patients in a broken system."
