Our Locum Doctor in Launceston, Cindy, wrote an article for Blugibbon about her experience in Tasmania. In February this year, I had the good fortune to explore a small part of Tasmania whilst doing some work in Launceston. As usual, Blugibbon was flexible and helpful in the planning stages. Essentially, allowing me to turn my locum work into a little holiday. Logistics and Travel for a Locum Doctor in Launceston I started the trip by flying into Hobart, where I was subjected to the most stringent biosecurity measures I have ever seen. (Yes, I have been to New Zealand) Thanks, COVID. A whirlwind of a weekend followed; fresh seafood, exceptional wine, and a hard slog up Mount Wellington, where I was rewarded with cloud(!). I rounded it all off with the compulsory trip to Mona, which far exceeded expectations, ending the afternoon with some live music on the Mona lawn. My pro tip would be to take the posh pit on the ferry over to Mona. You are welcomed with a glass of bubbles on the way to the museum, then farewelled with a glass of red on the way home, perfection! I found this car in Mona. I think it is trying to say something about gluttony and excess. Sadly, the message got blurred after the second posh pit wine.

Two of our Gibbons made the journey down to Tasmania last week to meet our fantastic locum doctor in Tasmania. Shannon and Anna absolutely loved getting in front of some of the great people we previously only had the pleasure to speak with over the phone. They also picked up some great local tricks and tips to share. WHAT ARE THE LOGISTICS AND FLIGHT TIMES FROM MAJOR AIRPORTS? Coming from Sydney, it was easiest to fly into Hobart and then jump in a hire car to make their way up to Launceston (apparently, it’s pronounced “LON-CESTON” – they got told off for this one!). It is a beautiful drive through the hills and only takes 2.5 hours.
