Student Series: Georgia Goodhew on where her "heart really lies"

We all owe something to our mothers, but medical student Georgia
Goodhew is especially grateful to hers. When Georgia finally
realised a girl could become a doctor, it was her mother who
stood beside her in the face of many detractors. In this episode
of Destination Medicine, Georgia shares her journey from growing
up in Narrabri to pursuing her dream of becoming a rural doctor.
Fascinated by the human body from a young age, Georgia overcame
numerous challenges, including the lack of female doctors in her
community, to achieve her goal. She discusses her path through
sonography, the pivotal role of mentors, and the motivation
behind co-founding Boots to Scrubs, an initiative for rural
females aspiring to do medicine. Georgia’s story is a testament
to hard study, community support, and the fulfilling
opportunities in rural healthcare.
