Description

Dr Bryan Mitchelson is a paediatric cardiologist at Starship Children’s Hospital in Auckland. He works in the growing area of paediatric heart failure and transplantation and is involved in projects aimed at improving outcomes in young people after heart transplantation. Bryan is a self-proclaimed mozzie (Māori/Aussie) having been born and raised in Australia, but is trying to re-engage with his Māori roots now that he is living in New Zealand. 

In this episode, we discuss his journey from rural Australia into medicine, work-life balance, rediscovering his Māori whakapapa and tūrangawaewae, taking time away from medicine to care for his terminally-ill father, and all things paediatric cardiology.
