Dr Anton Grech, a Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry within the University of Malta’s Faculty of Medicine and Surgery, has achieved excellent results in the recently-published Malta Broadcasting Authority Survey.
From the latest audience assessment carried out in November, 2019, it resulted that his weekly spot on TV magazine programme, Illum ma’ Steph, during which he talks about mental wellbeing, is the most followed slot in all magazine programmes, of all Maltese stations, during the whole week.
“This spike in viewership means that the general public is interested in the topic of mental wellbeing, and that education on the subject is needed. I am very grateful that I get to reach such a large audience and will continue to leave a positive impact through my weekly appearance on the magazine programme”, said Dr Anton Grech.
The Malta Broadcasting Authority routinely conducts surveys with viewers and listeners of Maltese TV and radio stations to gauge which programmes they normally follow. The same study found that 65.16 % of the Maltese population followed TV regularly during November 2019.
