Dr. Lydia Nunes case study

A great case study of Dr. Lydia Nunes has been added to the My Medical Career case studies section.

I came to Australia in 1994 after I completed my training in anaesthetics. I was offered a job in the hospital emergency department because of my anaesthetic training. I loved emergency department work . I loved the people contact. I became ambivalent about continuing anaesthetics. I decided to take up general practice as a specialty.

I was very impressed with the quality of care in australia. I had to sit all my exams again- the AMC and Fellowship exams. With hard work I was able to pass them first go. I secured a place in the training program for general practice and obstetrics and gynaecology. I chose general practice so I could support the wider community.
