Dr Abhishek Verma trained as a surgeon. He finished a Master's of Surgery and was accepted into two surgical training programs, then walked away to become a GP. Recognised with a Medal of the Order of Australia in the 2026 King's Birthday Honours and a former joint Australian GP of the Year, he makes the case for the kind of care that rarely gets a medal. Join us in this podcast as he explains why the least glamorous branch of medicine became his home and what it actually takes to be useful to someone who doesn't yet trust the system.
