DR DONNA PATERSON

consultant

Originally from Elgin, Donna made it as far as Aberdeen to study medicine and complete her training in Emergency Medicine. She now works as an ED consultant in ARI and RACH.

Donna teaches on ALS, APLS and HMIMMS courses and has recently been appointed as the MTC clinical governance lead for ARI.

She feels extremely fortunate to be part of the EMRS north team since its fruition and helps support the north RPs through their post graduate training to achieve their Advanced Retrieval Practitioner role. Her more valued specialist skill may be the Doric accent translation for many of the team members when on a call in the shire!

In her spare time, Donna enjoys spending time with her animals and husband taking trips up to their boat in Loch Ness, along with socialising with friends and family.
