AMA QUEENSLAND’S ANNUAL BREAKFAST
Women in Medicine MORE THAN 140 GUESTS BRAVED THE EARLY MORNING TO JOIN SPECIAL GUEST, COMEDIAN AND AUTHOR WENDY HARMER FOR THE ANNUAL AMA QUEENSLAND WOMEN IN MEDICINE BREAKFAST HELD AT VICTORIA PARK GOLF COMPLEX ON WEDNESDAY 31 JULY. The topic this year was ‘Growing older with grace?’ as women experience increasing pressure to ‘combat ageing’ and maintain relevance in a youth-obsessed culture. Wendy tackled serious issues such as body image, self-esteem, cosmetic surgery and bullying in a warm, witty and wildly entertaining presentation that had the audience in stitches. Her number one beauty tip for looking instantly younger - “Install a light dimmer switch - works every time!”
The morning was hosted by AMA Queensland CEO Jane Schmitt and President Dr Christian Rowan, who although largely outnumbered by members of the fairer sex, said he found the morning very “educational!” A number of great prizes were also awarded thanks to the generosity of our corporate sponsors and partners.
