I am in conversation with Dr Menzi Mkhize.

Dr. AM Mkhize is a medical doctor who qualified at the University of KwaZuluNatal. He has both critical care and rural medicine experience but decided to
pour his passion into public health.
Dr Mkhize has a passion for serving and advocating for the marginalized. He is an LGBTQIA+ affirming provider.

He is currently stationed at the Bertha Gxowa care centre, where he provides clinical forensics and medical services in the form of mostly post-gender-based violence care.
The centre is LGBTQIA+ friendly.

He also has been part of an anti-kidnapping effort tackling the Grindrkidnapping syndicate targeting LGBTQIA+ people through the Grindr app and other applications.

The centre is a medicolegal centre where he consults:
* Survivors of gender-based violence in the form of domestic violence and Intimate Partner Violence.
* Sexual offences: J88 completion and Evidence collection.
* Court summons.
* Trafficking in persons
* Child neglect and abuse: form 22.
* Elderly abuse victims
* Medical assessments for kids who need placement into the foster health system.
