Dr Megan Kell is a UK haematologist, currently practising in Sheffield. She is the Chair of the British Society of Haematology's Global Haematology Specialist Interest Group and has a long standing interest in Global Health. She recently returned from over two years working as one of only two haematologists in the small, west African nation of The Gambia. This is an eye-opening interview which makes you realise what we take for granted. There are some great stories in here about how to improvise, how to acquire what you need in a resource poor setting, and what's truly important in medicine. This is a must listen!
