Dr Nabeela Kajee, Walking Through Places of Privilege

Awakening Doctor

Is it possible to be a full human being when your profession demands so much of you? Does being a clinician require you to be removed from your patient’s experience, or from your own experience as you witness theirs? What is it that we need to protect in medicine? These are the questions that Dr Nabeela Kajee, medical doctor, writer, thinker, poet and Rhodes scholar, grapples with as she navigates the hallowed halls of academia.

In this episode of Awakening Doctor, we delve into her experiences at medical school and discover the hopes, triumphs, challenges, and twists of fate that brought her to Oxford University to pursue a PhD in Psychiatry. We reflect on the importance of self-awareness and intentionality in medical practice, and learn about the role models and mentors that have defined and shaped her commitment to humanising the profession.

Join us for an inspiring and thoughtful reflection on the intersection of identity, history, community and privilege in the quest to integrate the art and science of medicine.
