Social Issue: Men health Seeking Behavior

Issue: The doctor noted that mens pride often got in the way of their healthcare. His male patients were
often reluctant to come to follow ups and comply with medication. Often because they viewed being
sick the same as being weak

Intervention: To combat this, the doctor emcourages the females in these patients lives whether it be
lovers, mothers or sisters to get involved in the males health. He noted that male patients did much
better when they had someone to hold them accountable.
