"Having the opportunity to take my skills overseas and learn how things work in a healthcare system that is, in many ways, completely different from my own was too good to pass up."

"My supervisors were great, really friendly and engaging and all spoke excellent English and got me involved".

"The doctors and nurses are supremely knowledgeable and excellent teachers".
