Show Notes
Dr Douglas Kingwell joins the team to discuss femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), hip preservation surgery, and the long road from country kid to Orthopaedic Surgeon. We dive into his training journey, life in the city, and the experiences that shaped his career. Along the way, we revisit the registrar years, relive some questionable decisions, and uncover the stories that are probably best left out of job interviews. We explore the path to becoming a surgeon, the challenges of training, and why some lessons are learned the hard way. As always told with our special blend of truth, exaggeration and a large smothering of hilarious stories that have got us here. Thanks to i-Med Radiology for sponsoring the podcast.
