In this episode we cover:
Leigh is the kind of doctor you want in A&E or ITU when things go wrong. But when things went wrong for her, after a Covid vaccine she says almost killed her, the profession she had given her life to turned away. Former Head of Anaesthesia at Gisborne Hospital in New Zealand, Leigh tells me how her colleagues responded, why she chose to deregister and what it cost her family. I share my own story of cauda equina twice, and the silence that followed. We also talk about what medicine has lost, why Leigh is not afraid of dying, and her words for the next generation.
First half free. Full episode for paid subscribers.
Thank you for being here, enjoy the episode.
