From hospital groundskeeper to doctor: ‘Some days I miss only having to worry about the lawns’
Dr Marcin Skladaniec swapped a lawnmower for a stethoscope on returning to Lockhart River as a doctor.
When Dr Marcin Skladaniec began with Queensland Health, his greatest responsibility was to keep his local hospital’s lawns flourishing and mowed.
Ten years later the former groundskeeper has swapped the ride-on mower and whipper snipper for a stethoscope and is working as provisional senior medical officer at Tully Hospital in Far North Queensland.
