Smithton is a world away from his birthplace in rural Pakistan, but Ochre Health’s new GP feels instantly at home.
“I’ve just moved here and I’m enjoying it, Dr Syed Kazmi said.
“I’m a village man myself. I grew up in a village, and studied in a village, before I went to medical school in the city. I walk every day and it’s very friendly, everybody says hello and I’m starting to connect with people.”
He’s also delighted to find a culturally inclusive, permanent home for his young family.
“During hospital training I had to move around, which wasn’t great. I couldn’t get to know people or follow them up properly. That’s why I decided to become a GP, so I can know people and follow their progress.”
