228 – This OB/GYN left America and now practices in Australia / New Zealand

Show Notes

What’s good everyone!

Let’s go back to Episode 1! You’re going to hear from Dr. Carmen Brown, an OB/GYN who now practices in Australia.

She is a southwest Atlanta native who started her medical career in Athens, Georgia. After being fed up with all the typical frustrations doctors have, she and her husband literally closed up shop, packed their bags, and took a world tour. If you've ever been to New Zealand, you'll know why they decided to call it their new home.

In this episode you’ll learn:

The differences in practicing medicine between the United States and New Zealand
What’s it like as an African American woman living there
What financial preparations were necessary to leave her practice and take off on a world tour
What’s her advice for other physicians considering moving and practicing abroad
Why she’s not just a doc!

“Having the Darkos describe their journey provided a solace that no sort of debt counseling would ever bring about. Anyways, this show is consistent in the fact that it always delivers gems and enlightens listeners. I’ve shared the podcast with my classmates. Please keep up the great work!”

★★★★★ 5/5

This is such an inspiring podcast! Every episode is better than the last! I just got into medical school and Dr. Darko has made me realize that the medical field has countless opportunities in addition to being physicians. We only get one life so let’s make it count and LIVE OUTSIDE THE BOX! Thank you again for all you do, Dr. Darko! I can’t thank you enough!

Thank you so much, Dr. Darko, for finding and then broadcasting the amazing, game-changing work of doctors working outside (and inside) the box. I already had my first bout of professional burnout less than a few years out of residency, but listening to your podcast has inspired me to get my head back in the game and perhaps, find my own unique contribution.

I wish this was around when I was a med student – I can’t say enough about how helpful this has been in pointing out things we as physicians don’t think about. Dr. Darko takes you through these interviews with the ease of a conversation with your colleague and you feel like he’s having aha moments right with you!
