The Surgical Education and Training (SET) Program is designed to ensure surgical trainees become competent surgeons to the communities they serve, which include regional areas of Australian and New Zealand. Associate Professor Matthias Wichmann is a general surgeon who has been highly supportive in mentoring SET aspirants in Mount Gambier in South Australia. A recent general surgical SET trainee is Dr Matt Watson. Both discuss the benefits of the program and the attraction of working and living rurally.
