GlobalSurgTalk is a podcast brought to you by BFIRST - the British Foundation for International Reconstructive Surgery & Training. Here, where we take a behind the scenes look at the experiences, challenges and triumphs of visiting and local surgeons involved in global surgery. For our first episode, we have a conversation from a few months back, where we sat down with Mr Wee Lam, who is the Consultant Plastic and Hand Surgeon at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh and the exiting president of BFIRST. We look back at his time as president of BFIRST, his work in Cambodia, the personal challenges he faced, the lessons he’s learned and his thoughts on the future of global surgery.
