from Baskets Of Knowledge · host Prajesh Chhanabhai; Tane Whitehead
Growing up in the small town of Fielding in the Manawatu and having parents what had never been to University Sam always had a passion and drive to enter the health care profession.This was clearly apparent when at school students were asked to bring in their favourite book/reading they had done as a year 9 and Sam brought in a book that details a very specific health process, whilst his peers brough in books like Harry Potter etc. This focus did not waiver when Sam did not get into Medical School after Health Science First Year, instead it allowed Sam to focus on other areas of interest. When he did get into Medical School a number of corridor conversations allowed him to explore various oppurtunities that have given him a skill set that is pretty special. Please enjoy listening to this episode with Dr Sam Grainger.
