For newly registered pharmacist Susie Wong, that sense of trust and connection is at the heart of her work. After building her career in Malaysia and relocating to New Zealand, she has embraced the opportunity to expand her clinical scope while serving her Northland community.

Passionate about improving access to healthcare, particularly in rural areas, Susie believes pharmacists play a vital role in delivering fast, safe, and equitable care.
