Associate Professor Andrew Dean, MBBS FACEM, has been practising emergency medicine for almost 40 years. He is Acting Head of Melbourne Clinical School, University of Notre Dame Australia, and the Director of Clinical Training, Emergency Department St. John of God Hospital, Ballarat, Australia.
Mindfulness has such a huge role to play amongst medical staff. We were lucky enough to bring Andrew to Darwin virtually for a JMO teaching session, which was amazing. Not only was mindfulness and its importance broken down as it applies to doctors, we also had the opportunity to put it into practice. I encourage all doctors who may be sceptical or haven't tried it to read this book and get in touch with Andrew. Dr Adam Conroy Emergency Division, Royal Darwin Palmerston Hospital
