"A great opportunity" says new locum
Dr Joanna Wojciechowska has just taken up a one-year post as Locum Consultant Physician in general medicine at Caithness General Hospital in Wick.
Dr Wojciechowska, who has been working at Raigmore Hospital, completed all her medical, education, training and qualifications in Poland.
This included the Polish equivalent of the UK's Certificate of Completion of Training in General/Internal Medicine and Diabetes, as well as a PhD degree.
She said: “I had been working for 13 years in Internal Medicine in Poland and for the last four years in the Diabetes Institute in Inverness.
“For someone from a different medical reality, Caithness General Hospital is a great opportunity to widen professional horizons, but first of all it's a fantastic possibility to live in the most beautiful part of Europe.”
