This episode of UGP 2.0 features a guest host, Freek Slooter, our colleague GP from the Netherlands, who interviewed Eldine Oosterberg on low health literacy during this year’s WONCA Europe conference. They offer us an insight into a common problem, which not only affects migrants, but also many other semi-illiterate people who lack the necessary skills to read and understand basic health information and face difficulties with communication.
