Dr Isabella Bradley will join the Ochre Medical Centre Scottsdale in October where she will spend 13 weeks exploring rural medicine in a program funded by the Federal Department of Health.
The Rural Junior Doctor Training Innovation Fund is a community-based program designed to encourage more doctors to choose a rural general practice career. The program is the first of a number of programs that train, mentor and support doctors as they acquire experience in rural medicine through different stages of their training.
We asked Dr Bradley a few questions about herself:
I was born in Sydney.
University of New South Wales in Sydney
I always wanted to be a doctor or vet from when I was little. As I got older I realised that Medicine would offer both the opportunity to help others, as well as an opportunity to constantly challenge myself to learn more.
I started Medicine straight after finishing school, however during my degree I’ve done lots of Outdoor Activities. I really enjoy hiking, mountain biking, skiing and rock-climbing. It was these activities that made me want to move to Tasmania.
I really enjoy the close-knit communities in rural areas and did multiple rural placements during my Medical degree. I am also very excited to get out to Derby after work most days while in Scottsdale.
I would like to do General Practice.
Yes.
Scottsdale seems like a beautiful rural town up in the mountains. My main knowledge of the area is through Derby where I have mountain biked on several occasions.
Hiking, mountain-biking, skiing, reading, yoga, rock-climbing.
