🧑🏫 Mature Medic Spotlights: Season 2, Episode 5 🧑🏫
Our next episode is with Dr Lauren-Jane!
Lauren went into higher education from the unusual background of no A-levels, after working for a little while she took an access course with teaching in mind and found a love for learning and education. From there she completed a degree in theology before a range of experiences, including volunteering for the Red Cross, inspired her to study medicine. She started on the Nottingham GEM course as a single mum and is now a core surgical trainee and mum of 2!
We chat about finding a love for studying and getting the education bug, being self-reflective in your study method and being open to change when it's not working and her path to surgery. We also discuss the value of bringing diversity to medicine and sharing experiences to inspire others and looking at preconceptions around surgery.
You can find Lauren over on her Instagram @thesurgicaldoctor and her YouTube channel!
