Joseph Hewitt
Adelaide Medical School
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
I'm currently an unaccredited surgical registrar working at Port Augusta Hospital with an interest in general surgery and clinical research.
My current research focus is on pursuing a part time Master of Philosophy (Surgery) looking at risk assessment in emergency laparotomy. This consists of a systematic review, an interview based study of general surgeons and trainees and an audit.
I'm also a Clinical Associate Lecturer with the University and am engaged regularly with teaching medical students.
