Well, I suppose it’s about a fortnight this time! Here’s some of the highlights

It’s been a more relaxed week in terms of pace, but lots of paperwork, meetings and other things to fill the schedule. That said, it really hasn’t felt very stressful. This answers something I have been wondering for a while: is my schedule actually unsustainable? Or is it lacking autonomy? The answer seems closer to […]

Well, technically this is a fortnightly update since the previous weekend was so jam packed and so was the week just past. Here’s a quick snapshot of what has been happening:

This week has been strangely busy but from a start-up assist point of view. I’ve been updating the i-scribe.com.au website and having meetings to see how I can help anaemate.com.au too. This along with course work has meant that even though I haven’t worked much clinically, the days really have been quite full! One of […]

That always leads to […]

Ola (or hello) from Lisbon, Portugal! It was a hectic 48 hours before and after getting here, hence apologies for the late newsletter! It’s been spectacular weather here so far and a fairly chilled out day given we arrived on their Freedom Day holiday. The last week I was looking forward to the trip but […]

I was hoping to get this newsletter out on Sunday since the on call didn’t seem to be super busy. Literally as I sat down to right it, the phone started going off the hook. Such is the nature of on call! It’s been a rather full week of working everyday and also doing some […]
