IN THIS ISSUE
We know that some decisions are difficult to make and that the grass always seems greener on the other side. The September edition of SMA News brings you stories of doctors who have taken leaps of faith and embarked on different medical career paths. For the Feature article, Dr Alex Wong explores some truths about private practice and how fulfilling it can be despite the bad rap it so often gets. Drs Seow Yu Jin, Song Mingjun and Jason Lau write about their journeys to/in the UK, US and Australia, respectively, and the joys and challenges they have experienced along the way. Other articles include an interview with A/Prof Yeoh Khay Guan on medical education, an article on the Global Surgery Interest Group, and an eye-opening piece on practising within competence.
