PULSE

When the Doctor Becomes the Patient, with Dr Amandeep Hansra


Listen Later

Special episode: Today on Pulse, we’re doing something a little different. We’re joined by one of Australia’s most respected voices in digital health — Dr Amandeep Hansra. Amandeep is a GP, a health tech leader, an investor, and a long-time advocate for innovation in healthcare. She is the founder of Australian Medical Angels investment syndicate and Creative Careers in Medicine – a community for clinicians who support each other as they explore ‘creative’ ways to practice medicine differently.


But earlier this year, the tables turned. In a sudden and deeply personal twist, Amandeep found herself not behind the stethoscope, but on the other side — as a patient, facing a series of debilitating symptoms that landed her in hospital. Within mere weeks she was back living her best life, but answers are still elusive. 


Today, Amandeep is generously joining us to share her journey — not just as a doctor, but as someone navigating the complexities, gaps, and opportunities in our health system firsthand. This is a story about communication, access, digital innovation, and what happens when the doctor becomes the patient.
