She was previously the Director of Perioperative Services at Auckland City Hospital and her clinical interests include perioperative medicine and liver transplant anaesthesia. Her colleagues and staff would say she is the ideal person to be tasked with leading the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists through a pandemic due to her calm and respectful leadership and drive to support trainees, fellows and staff through some extraordinary moments.In this episode, we discuss her journey into medicine, working in South Africa during apartheid, the highlights and lowlights of anaesthetics, subspecialising in liver transplant anaesthetics and what makes an outstanding anaesthetics applicant.As always, if you have any feedback or queries, or if you would like to get in touch with the speaker, feel free to get in touch at [email protected] credit:Bliss by Luke Bergs https://soundcloud.com/bergscloudCreative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/33DJFs9Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/e9aXhBQDT9YSupport the showAs always, if you have any feedback or queries, or if you would like to get in touch with the speaker, feel free to get in touch at [email protected].
