E91: Getting into Neurosurgery and Founding Brainbook - Mr Alex Alamri

In this week’s episode we meet Alex who shares with us his journey from the very beginning. We delve into his passion for creativity and art discovering he never actually wanted to be a doctor in the first place to only later become a neurosurgeon. Alex shares his love for the human brain and anatomy alongside his personal experiences with surgery. Tune in to find out what kept him going despite failing to secure a training number twice and the mentor who helped him succeed. Alex also shares the story behind founding Brainbook.

We spend time discussing the application process, the egos, the culture and everything in between for budding neurosurgeons. We end by hearing his tips and advice alongside his new creative outlet on YouTube.
