A Weyburn born and raised woman will be returning to Saskatchewan to practise in a sub-specialized area of Medicine.
Susan Bobbitt, daughter of Greg Bobbitt and Linda Rudachyk, went to school at St. Dominic Savio, St. Michael Junior High and graduated from Weyburn Comprehensive in 2002. She received a scholarship to play softball at Tusculum University in Greeneville, Tennessee for four years. After two years, Susan requested to go to Dickinson State University, where she received her Bachelor of Science Summa Cum Laude.
Bobbitt was accepted into the University of Saskatchewan College of Medicine and graduated with her Doctor of Medicine. She was accepted into Dalhousie University in Halifax to do her residency in Pediatrics and worked out of the Issac Walton Killam Children's Hosptial.
During her three year residency, she completed various electives in hospitals throughout Canada. Dr. Bobbitt was accepted into a fellowship program to sub-specialize in Developmental Pediatrics and spent two years with the University of Edmonton and worked at the Glenrose Hospital, as well as doing electives throughout Canada.
Susan is married to Austin Lamb, who was born and raised in Saskatoon. He has been in Halifax for the past five years completing his specialty in Anasthesia.
Throughout their thirteen years of post secondary training, they have journeyed, with the hope of returning to Saskatchewan. Both have been highly recruited in centres across North America, but their love lies in Saskatchewan, which is why they chose to return home.
Dr. Susan Bobbitt will be working for the Saskatoon Health Region as a Developmental Pediatrician and will work out of the Kinsmen Children's Centre and Royal University Hospital. Dr. Austin Lamb will be practising as an anesthetist throughout the three Saskatoon hospitals, beginning in late summer.
