People working in medicine spend their lives and careers helping others but are sometimes in need of assistance themselves. We provide help to these people, so that they can continue to work and train as doctors even in times of personal hardship.
Dr Manyar is a Core Surgical Trainee in Chichester. She got a degree in physiology and pharmacology at King’s College London, but decided she wanted to pursue a career in medicine where she could continue to have patient contact, and so applied and was accepted for a second degree at King’s, in medicine.
