Psychology or Healthcare Studies

I'm an incoming freshman and I was planning to major in Psychology, but I'm thinking of switching to Healthcare Studies. I always planned to go to grad school, but lately I've had people tell me that Psychology is essentially a useless degree. I'm not sure what I want to do, but I was thinking either clinical psychology or pharmacology. I definitely don't want to be a medical doctor. Is Psychology really "useless"? Is Healthcare Studies also considered a "useless" degree?
