Record new intern doctor intake shows Geoff Provest’s Tweed Valley Hospital Plan is working

It was great to welcome 27 fabulous new intern doctors to the Tweed Hospital last week.

I was delighted to have the chance to chat to each of them.

It was great to see we have some Tweed locals returning to their home towns, while others are from as far south as Wollongong.

They have not just chosen a great place to live, they will soon be moving into one of the newest state of the art facilities, our brand new Tweed Valley Hospital. These awesome young women and men will save many Tweed lives.

Thank you and welcome, Doctors!
