In this episode I chat with Dr Dinesh Palipana OAM, and shine a light on his incredible journey from medical student to being the only quadriplegic to graduate medical school in Queensland and the second to graduate from medical school in Australia.

Dr Palipana OAM is a doctor, lawyer, disability advocate and researcher who challenges to fight against reducing the breadth of specialities, like anaesthesia, into small boxes.

Dr Palipana kindly contributed an article to the June 2022 edition of Australian Anaesthetist. To read more from him and anaesthetists who are working after significant injuries please download the magazine for free from here:
