Rewrite the following in point form
"Traditional healers in South Africa are an essential resource in the healthcare system, serving a large percentage of the population, especially in black communities. Many people prefer consulting traditional healers due to their understanding of African culture and the ability to provide effective treatments for psychological issues. Some traditional healers are so popular that they can charge higher consultation fees than medical doctors.
There is a growing recognition of the importance of working with traditional healers alongside Western-trained health professionals such as psychologists. However, some health professionals, particularly Western-trained ones, may not want to collaborate with traditional healers due to cultural arrogance and a limited understanding of their methods and effectiveness. This attitude hinders the potential benefits of collaboration between traditional healers and Western-trained professionals in providing holistic healthcare services to the population.
Efforts are being made to promote collaboration between psychologists and traditional healers, with the aim of learning from each other's successes and failures in treating different kinds of symptoms. By enhancing mutual understanding and communication between these two groups, they can identify the best approaches to refer clients and provide the most effective treatment for various health issues in South Africa."
