Dr Nikki Stamp is one of Australia's leading heart surgeons, an author and TV presenter. Nikki always wanted to be a surgeon but never expected just how tough the job would be – the long hours, sexism, burnout and bullying. Her new book ‘Scrubbed' details the issues faced by those in the public health and how she's turning her attention to fixing it – and it's a story with so many similarities to what we are facing here in New Zealand too. Dr Nikki Stamp joined Francesca Rudkin from Perth. LISTEN ABOVE

This week Health Minister Andrew Little announced a taskforce to tackle long delays for procedures and appointments within the health system.  The thought of yet another working group or taskforce may make us roll our eyes, but this one is at least made up of people working at the heart of our DHB's and health system – which should give us some hope. Those on the taskforce are at least aware of what can and can't be done, and if they can't come up with solutions to get rid of the backlog then I doubt anyone can.  Andrew Little made the point that New Zealand's health services have come through the pandemic better than elsewhere, due to our lockdown approach and being able to be business as usual for long periods of time.  However, the latest figures from March show nearly 36,000 people had been waiting longer than four months to have their first appointment with a hospital specialist. That's more than twice as many people as before the Covid-19 pandemic hit.  And the number of people waiting longer than four months for treatment has more than tripled throughout the pandemic from February 2020 to March this year. Then of course there are those who have been waiting since before Covid to even get on a public health waiting list.  I'm not sure any of these patients are interested in comparisons to other countries at this point.  What they will be interested in are the solutions the taskforce comes up with, and how DHB's progress will be measured.  On the table at this stage are the possibility of getting your treatment at another DHB, being offered an alternative treatment plan, and making the most of the private sector. DHB's are being encouraged to take whatever short-term measures they can to reduce waiting times, but we have to wait until September for a national plan to be presented. That feels an age away.  I really hope they find solutions that are the best outcome for both the patient and the health sector. This week, I happened to be reading a book called Scrubbed by Australian heart surgeon, Dr Nikki Stamp. She's is one of only 13 cardiothoracic surgeons in Australia. While Nikki's book captures her experiences training and working in Australia, I'm sure there are similarities here. She tells a story of toxic workplaces, sexism, a broken health system weighed down by bureaucracy and a lack of staff that leads to burnout. Aside from that – she loves her job.  Her book reminds us all that there is no quick fix to either the pandemic backlog or the systemic issues that are facing our health workers and the health system. It's about more than just clearing a backlog. With the up-and-coming changes to our health system, we have an opportunity to work towards a truly gold class, patient-centric health service for all.  Let's hope this taskforce is up to it.

Hello and welcome to the next episode of the Compeat Waffle! This next episode came about after we started talking about heart health on our socials. In particular, we mentioned what could impact resting heart rate and how to know if it's something you should be alarmed about. With all the questions and the conversations that came out of that discussion we thought it would be a really good opportunity to dig all the little bit deeper into cardiac health in active individuals and athletes. Which is why we invited someone who knows a lot more about hearts than we ever will, Dr Nikki Stamp (@drnikkistamp). If you haven't come across Dr Nicky in either Instagram land or Twitter it is absolutely time to go and follow her. She is an epic human-based in WA where she is both a heart and lung surgeon. She improves her patient's outcomes by translating each and every risk, complication, and process so that the patient feels informed and comfortable. She is also an author of 2 books (which are very much worth reading). I think this is why she is so well received on social media and has seen such an amazing rise (again go check her out!) In this episode, we pick her brain on all things related to the heart and you can just really sense the passion she has on the topic - It's clear she has picked the perfect career. We discuss: The basics of the heart (so glad we asked this as her ability to simplify is epic) What happens to the heart when we exercise – how does it adapt? What's an athlete's heart? What are the signs and symptoms that you shouldn't ignore? Atrial fibrillation Heart rate variability and wearables Dan Edge, Co-CEO of Compeat Nutrition shares his own personal story around training for Triathlon and the complications with his own heart.

Having completed the gruelling years of training to become a surgeon she is now not only saving lives on the daily but has also just released her second book the day we recorded a few weeks ago, Pretty Unhealthy, is a public speaker, mentor and passionate supporter of women in medicine. I'm a bit squeamish so couldn't have hacked it in medicine but still have SO much curiosity about it as you'll hear very clearly, and I hope you find it as fascinating as I did to hear about life as a surgeon. + Full show notes here + Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah + Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!
