  • Summary

  • Nobody could convince Dr Nathan Blake to live and work in the city. He says a regional life is much “easier”. Not just because it is easier to get around, but because it is easier to work closely and learn more from your teachers, and because the cost of living is so much lower, making it financially easier for trainee doctors with potential student debts.

    In this episode of "Destination Medicine", Dr Blake shares the story of his journey into medicine, shaped by his childhood experiences on a farm during a drought and encounters with dedicated GPs. He reflects on his rewarding rural placement in Dubbo, highlighting the sense of community and unique learning opportunities. He discusses memorable moments in his career, the benefits of rural medicine over metro placements, and offers valuable advice for medical students considering a career in regional areas.
