12 | Dr. Hannah Noel on Dr. Jared Noel, navigating grief & paediatrics
Dr. Hannah Noel is a general paediatrician at Waitematā DHB, mother to 7 year old Elise and a director and part-owner of Crave café in Morningside. She grew up in Dunedin, was trained at Otago University, and has been Auckland-based since 2007. In November 2008, her life took an unexpected turn when her husband Jared (also a doctor) was diagnosed with metastatic bowel cancer; he died in October 2014. Hannah’s experience with grief and loss has led to an interest the multitude of ways humans cope with the unexpected things in life, and how we support colleagues, trainees and students at these times. She is inspired by great poets, great pastry chefs and the self-assurance and resilience of her daughter.
In this episode, we discuss her journey into medicine, navigating the diagnosis of metastatic bowel cancer with her late husband Dr. Jared Noel, being under the spotlight, finding solace in colleagues, navigating grief and solo parenting, and of course, her journey into paediatrics.
