Dr John Floridis — Top End adventures in remote medicine

There is so much to be learned from the vastly experienced Dr
John Floridis, a pharmacist-turned rural generalist and advanced
emergency medicine trainee. As well as being a rural and remote
family doctor, John is a GP anaesthetist and a medical retrieval
consultant who spent almost a decade servicing remote communities
(and the citizens of Darwin) in the Top End.


In this episode of Destination Medicine, Dr Floridis shares his
medical journey from his early days working in South Australia's
Riverland to practicing in remote East Arnhem Land. He reflects
on the unique challenges and rewards of rural and remote
healthcare. He discusses the deep connections with local
communities, the broad scope of practice, and the huge
opportunities for both professional and personal growth in rural
and remote medicine.
