‘Some of the wildest pathology in medicine’: Why Dr John Zorbas says every doctor needs time in the Top End
Dr John Zorbas took over the AMA NT presidency from Associate Professor Robert Parker, who stood down this year after more than a decade in the job.
“It is like playing a video game set on extreme difficulty.”
This is new AMA NT president Dr John Zorbas describing healthcare in the territory.
He has stepped into the shoes of Associate Professor Robert Parker, AMA NT’s longest continually serving president, as the territory faces, he says, an annual $200 million shortfall in federal funding for hospitals.
Like Professor Parker, Dr Zorbas is deeply in love with the NT.
