I have a great job. It is certainly the most challenging I have had. But it’s great. It is pretty unique in Australia and as a result I get asked to participate on a number of committees and reviews. There are also a few articles written in a number of pharmacy journals or magazines that include a bit about me or from me.
One article was titled “Shock and Awe” about remote Indigenous Health, written by Fran Molloy.
Andrew Roberts lost his real name on his first day in his new job “out bush” as a remote area pharmacist. His workplace spans a quarter of a million kilometres in Central Australia — and there, for the last four years, he’s been known simply as “Robbo”.
When he first introduced himself as Andrew, the local Aboriginal health worker responded, horrified, “That’s a Kunmarnarra name!”
Anyway, I thought some outside pharmacy may be interested in the read.
