The line graph illustrates how the average number of clients per week varied across four hospital clinics between 2010 and 2016.
Overall, there was a growth in the number of patients in all types of visits, except for birth control, which showed a stable trend.It is also clear that eye issues had the highest figures by far in the latter half of the period.
The figure for issues related to birth control in 2010 started at nearly 250 visits, after which it saw a sharp increase to about 270 in 2012. Despite a significant decline to 175 in 2014, it then recovered, reaching a high close to its starting figure by the end of the survey. In contrast, there were over 100 clients to the doctor concerning eye issues, and then rose negligibly over the next two years, prior to surging in the final four years to a high point, relative to all visits, of 350.
100 diabetic patients visited clinics, with a gradual increase to reach a high of 90, and a final rise from under 100 in 2014 to approximately 180 in 2016. Similar changes, but to a lesser extent, were seen in the number of dental clients, which began the period at exactly 100 visits, fell to half that number in 2012, more than recovered to 125 in 2014, followed by a stable decrease at the end of the period.
