In this episode of Doctors at Work, I have a conversation with Bu whose career spans multiple countries. She is now in Australia working as a GP, and also as a voluntary assisted-dying practitioner. She tells me that her career has evolved though a series of organic steps, focused on what she was enjoying, and what the opportunities were. With a backbone of General Practice that she can always return to, it has been easy for her to explore work as a breast physician as well as in voluntary-assisted dying. Her top tip is to look after yourself, life changes all the time and a focus on life balance is important for a satisfying career and personal life.
