The next Dr Monique Ryan? GP running for Parliament says former patients her ‘most dedicated volunteers’
Dr Verity Cooper was sent to 'political boot camp' as she went from retired GP to possible MP.
GP Dr Verity Cooper had planned to spend retirement getting fit and seeing friends.
That is until she discovered Independent for Sturt, a campaign group seeking a federal election candidate to challenge Liberal James Stevens, who holds the SA electorate by just 1000 votes.
A friend suggested that Dr Cooper put her hand up.
“I thought ‘Politics… what the hell do I know about politics?’” Dr Cooper tells AusDoc.
