Dr Regina Waterhouse - ACRRM-RDAA Rural Registrar of the Year 2022 (joint recipient)
Dr Regina Waterhouse – or ‘Dr Reggie’ as she is affectionately known by her patients – has provided medical care on Palm Island for more than 18 months, after completing her obstetrics training in Cairns.
A proud Torres Strait Islander woman, Regina was born and raised in Far North Queensland.
She initially trained as a teacher, and worked in the community services and disability support sector, before completing medical school as a mature age student.
In this podcast, Regina talks about her work on Palm Island, and also her path to Rural Medicine...and all that has entailed!
