The Old Operating Theatre Museum & Herb Garret Presents: Meet A Modern Practitioner.
The aim of this project is to develop a series of short films for younger people. These films would speak to modern-day medical practitioners, comparing their work to that which took place in the Old Operating Theatre of the Old St Thomas’ Hospital. Our hope is to encourage young people to consider a career related to medicine, to showcase the range of roles involved in medicine today, and to highlight how medicine has changed over the last two hundred years.
In this second film, we will meet Dr Flora Smyth Zahra who is a restorative dentist with a background in dentistry. She is the Clinical Senior Lecturer Interdisciplinarity & Innovation Dental Education and Clinical Humanities Lead at King’s College London, working to embed arts and humanities across dentistry training.
This work was paid for with a Lottery Heritage Fund.
