Dr Megan Cope

Dr Megan commenced employment at Wurli in August 2006. She has worked as a GP in Wollongong for more than three years, completing her RACGP qualifications in July 2005. Megan was a late bloomer, entering medicine as a mature age student having previously completed a BA (Hons) in Anthropology. She has travelled extensively, with great work opportunities in both the Philippines and in the north of Iraq, where she worked as a field coordinator for CARE Australia.

“Moving to Katherine to work in an AMS is fulfilling a lifetime dream.”

Dr Bruce Hocking

Dr Bruce worked as a General Practitioner in suburban Adelaide for 25 years, and for the past 4 years has worked within Aboriginal Medical Services in the Northern Territory. He has worked for Wurli on long term contracts since 2004.

“I love working in an AMS because the challenges for health care extend beyond pills and surgery to more fundamental issues of justice and equality. There is an opportunity for real healing to take place here, not only individually but culturally for black and white alike. And I keep coming back to Wurli because there is ample support, a well run organisation and a staff committed to providing the best quality care we can”.
