Last night the TVNZ show ‘Sunday’ did a story about New Zealand doctors going to Australia to locum. I was interviewed in it. Since then I’ve had a lot of feedback so I thought I’d put it in the MedRecruit blog.

A number of people, both doctors and administration, gave their opinions about the cause of the problem and also what needs to happen.

As doctors it’s important that your voice is heard so please leave your opinions in the comments section below.

Let us all know what you think.

This morning Sunrise did a story about the calendar we have produced to raise money for Ashely Thomson to Rise Up.

One thing I didn’t get a chance to mention this morning is that I wanted to say a big thank you to the design magician, James Walsh of Scratch Design. James did an incredible job putting the calendar together and he donated his time for this great cause. So thanks a lot James. www.scratchdesign.co.nz
