Clinician and teacher, sportsman and coach: an interview with Dr Henry Lam

摘要

When we interviewed Dr Henry Lam, he had just returned from Thailand where he had competed in a bridge tournament. Dr Lam is known among medical professionals for pioneering the breast screening service at the Well Women Clinic in 1990 and serving as College Warden from 2008 to 2016. But, as if his stellar medical credentials were not impressive enough, Dr Lam was also the team official for the Hong Kong bridge team at the Asian Games in 2018 which brought back two silver and two bronze medals. “My annual leave is mainly spent on sports training, academic conferences, and clinical teaching,” he explained, as we wondered how he manages to juggle his roles as a radiology consultant at Kwong Wah Hospital, Hong Kong, a trainer in radiology, and an avid athlete.
