Dr Anne Lam

Dr. Lam has just completed and recently graduated with her Bachelor of Medicine & Bachelor of Surgery degree at The University of Adelaide. 

Anne has been involved in working with NIE for over six years. During this time, she has regularly assisted with the NIE Medical Interview Workshops, Medical Pathway Webinars and the Future Doctors Australia programs.

When preparing for her own medical admission process, Anne left no stone unturned, gaining work experience in a variety of ways. To gain more direct exposure to a career in medicine, Anne shadowed multiple specialists in a variety of medical settings including an obstetrician and a general practitioner in Adelaide. She also shadowed rural health care providers in rural settings including a GP and a dentist. Still yearning to gain more work experience, Anne also traveled to Nepal with Projects Abroad. She was able to gain hands-on experience and insight into front-line medicine which was essential to her success during her admission process.

After attending the interview workshop herself in both Year 11 and Year 12, Anne was offered interviews for medicine and dentistry in all states around Australia and was successful in obtaining an offer for medicine in all respective universities. Through this, Anne became exposed to several methods of interviewing and in the past year, through working with the company and undergoing professional training, has developed a keen sense of knowledge into the mindset of an interviewer. She is highly specialised in giving constructive criticism to students preparing for the interviews and is passionate about helping students achieve their full potential.

For the past two years, Anne has also worked in the field of extracurricular education, working with tuition companies in Adelaide and giving private tuition in English, Physics, and Chemistry. She is currently involved in peer mentorship programs through Adelaide University and is passionate about sharing her knowledge with others.
