Blown away by the model designed by Dr Ngaree JB and team to teach the social determinants of health with explicit acknowledgment of racism and colonisation. Sovereignty is a protective factor. A balance between indigenising knowledge and decolonisation is sought. #PRIDoC2022

#PRIDoC2022 Dr Hinewaiora McLeery “you are exactly where your are meant to be…being Māori is your superpower! Tino pai te kōrero e hine!

The amazing Dr Kasey Tawahra giving an amazing keynote at #PRIDoC2022. Leading the way to improve culturally safe care for Whanau

Important update: Hinewaiora McCleery is now on Twitter! Please make her welcome #MedTwitter #iLookLikeASurgeon

Follow and tautoko a fabulous Māori doctor Hinewaiora McCleery .. She had a beautiful kōrero today about her journey in cardiothoracic surgery and the importance of having Indigenous doctors in all these spaces and the taumaha and wairuatanga that comes with that..

So proud Hinewaiora McCleery finally on Twitter so I can rave about how awesome she is 🥰 Love you e hoa 😘

This is wrong. Giving an okimaw astotin (headdress) to the leader of an institution that enacted Genocide on our Peoples is wrong. I have to say this as the actions of the people (person?) who organized this may confuse others and cause further harm. Genocide is the breaking /1

Cultural competency and framework - moving from theory to practing this at the coal face in surgery… Are we racist? ..YesUpskilling ourselves to provide care based on our patients needs as well as understanding what biases we bring to our patient consultations. #NZAGS22 NZ General Surgeons

#RACS23 Very powerful to have Professor Jonathan Koea to share his experience in Indigenous Cancer in Aotearoa RACSurgeons Te ORA

Two future stars 🌟 of surgery share the stage at #RACS23 - Rennie Qin and Hinewaiora McCleery I have #RACS23FOMO so bad I’m so proud of you both 🥰

Absolute heart sink moment. We are not anywhere near as patient-centred as we wish we were. Bias = limited patient care.

Thx Sally Langley & A/Prof. Amal Abou-Hamden 4 having Hinewaiora McCleery & I at the RACSurgeons ASC plenary. Only by bringing our true & best selves into surgery, can we transform surgery from a narrow, Western model to being culturally & environmentally responsive to all people & the planet

What a great #RACS23, such an important theme which was excellently executed. So fortunate for this lot 💗

Prof Jonathan Koea “Surgery should not lead to disparity; disparity should lead to surgery.” A message that rings true across so many aspects of healthcare #RACS2023
