Of the many uni students that graduate in medicine each year, few dedicate their lives to working in remote and underserviced communities—committing time and resources to studying less well-known tropical illnesses and working to ensure that ‘community health’, really does include ‘working together’ with the peoples from that community. 

In this episode of Illumine—Grammar Women, Principal of Brisbane Girls Grammar School, Ms Jacinda Euler speaks with alumnae, Dr Wendy Page (1972), who has worked as a General Practitioner for more than 30 years—primarily focusing her work in remote First Nations communities in north-east Arnhem Land. In 2021, Dr Page’s incredible contributions to the improvement of Aboriginal health outcomes were recognised when she was named the Northern Territory Recipient for Australian of the Year.
