- Dr Alex Douglas STRESS WARNING: This interview discusses extreme violence and personal experiences of PTSD, and may trigger an anxiety response. Please consider this before viewing or sharing this content. Dr Alex Douglas is an anaesthetist, an intensivist, and an active member of the Australian Defence Force. Her deployment to Rwanda, early in her career, saw her awarded the prestigious Medal for Gallantry, but had many other consequences, both professional and personal. It may be a difficult interview to watch but it carries an important message for all health care professionals about the need to be mindful of their own - and their colleagues’ - mental health.
