Having spent his entire career in the public system, Nick brings a unique perspective on how outdated awards, stalled enterprise bargaining, and pay disparities are driving doctors out of NSW hospitals.Nick explains why junior doctors here earn up to 30% less than their interstate colleagues, how staff specialists are locked into contracts that don’t reflect modern models of care, and why many are turning to locum or VMO work instead.
