The recent strike by our doctors further highlighted the many challenges faced by the medical practitioners in the field such as bullying and burnout culture. But, as a medical practitioner, are there any other career paths available, other than working as a clinical doctor?

Established in 2020, Medic Footprints is driven to help doctors explore other medical professions, clinical and non-clinical, assisting them in their career change, and supporting them every step of the way. They believe that doctors should have the freedom to explore all aspects of healthcare, empowering doctors to attain a good quality of life.

We are joined today by the founder of Medic Footprints, Dr Selina Chew
