Meet Brian

Brian Gutierrez is a 4th year UQ-Ochsner medical student, originally from San Diego, California.

He returned to Brisbane to undertake his return rotation as part of his 4th year studies. This explains what that is and what Brian has been doing on his return trip to Australia.

Meet Gracy

"I get to study aboard here in Australia but also I get to end up back at Ochsner which is exactly where I want to be for my medical education."

Meet Brian

"It was insightful to see what it is like hands-on, and I didn’t want to limit myself to just one place, I wanted to expand my knowledge and my boundaries."

Meet James

"The opportunity to acquire a global medical education in Brisbane and New Orleans was unique and exciting to me."

Meet Rohit

"Having had education in two different health systems has really given me a global perspective in the way I wish to practice."

Meet Bhumit

 "Never would I have imagined that I would go to Australia, move across the world for two years and be the person that I am today."

Meet Brian

"In many ways, the experience that we had in Australia was a talking point at many of the (match) interviews."

Meet Katie

"In 1st and 2nd year we do a lot of physical exams and really hands-on with patients - I think that sets the UQ-Ochsner students ahead of the game because they can approach patients easier and therefore they can learn faster."

Meet Imran

"We were given all the opportunities to do what we needed to do to get those program interviews and successfully match. I got my first choice program, I had a great education, I had the time of my life, made lifelong friends and I got my dream job."

Meet Brian

"I chose UQ because of the ability and the chance to learn medicine on two separate continents, in two completely different healthcare systems."
