Student Series: Dr Yvonne Chang — from Agriculture to Medicine, a researched route

Dr Yvonne Chang’s journey to medicine wasn’t a direct one, but
her travel experiences while studying agricultural research
certainly cemented her wishes to work in regional and rural
Australia. After consulting with an important mentor and friends
who were already studying medicine, she decided that a life in
the lab wasn’t for her. Yvonne craved greater personal
interactions as well as helping people. So, after a very helpful
year working in hospital administration, she finally took the
plunge and entered post-graduate medical school, loving the rural
placements she went to, including a year in Broken Hill where she
was embraced by the community both inside and outside the local
hospital.
