This lifelong East Coast Radio listener has also had a lifelong aspiration to become a doctor. This endeavour was possibly influenced by observing her father and four older siblings pursue and thrive in the medical profession.
In my heart, I knew this was what I wanted for myself. Knowledge is power, and I think there’s no greater privilege than being able to understand the intricacies of what our bodies go through to keep us alive. It’s incredibly humbling and truly fascinating.
So where did it all begin? This former Crawford College La Lucia student graduated Dux with a 93% pass rate in matric. Since then she has excelled in every facet of her life, including her hobbies of yoga and ice-skating.
Now, Dr Bhorat is currently doing her internship at the Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town. While this internship is a lengthy journey, she is yet to decide what exactly she will specialise in.
