Meet Dr Sonya, a medical intern at the RBWH.
After studying at Griffith University, Dr Sonya moved to Brisbane to begin her internship at the RBWH, inspired by glowing reviews from friends who were already working there.
Dr Sonya is currently on her Obstetrics and Gynaecology rotation, where she also assists in theatres and supports the birth suite team, helping ensure things run smoothly for both patients and medical staff.
“The transition from university to working was a bit of a daunting one, but I feel really well supported by the team of doctors and allied health staff at the Royal."
"I love coming to work because there’s so much to learn every day. I’ve always been passionate about science and medicine and being surrounded by so many intelligent people who are experts in their fields is a privilege."
"I try to soak up whatever wisdom they share with us,” Dr Sonya said.
One moment that stands out for Dr Sonya was her first experience in the theatre, helping to perform a caesarean.
“I cried when the baby was delivered. Seeing the parents hold their baby for the first time, the mix of emotions on their faces—it was unforgettable. As doctors, we’re privileged to be part of such defining moments. That’s a privilege I’ll never take for granted.”
