S1 Ep. 4 - Diabetes and Aviation - Dr Jeremy Robertson
Join us in our latest episode of the aerospace medicine podcast, where we interview Dr Jeremy Robertson, a former civilian airline pilot turned doctor who used his diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes to improve care for Type 1 pilots all over Australia.
This episode is a light-hearted but deep dive into Jeremy, an insight into the life of Australian Aviation Medicine examiners, and the story of how Type 1 Diabetics have now become medically qualified to fly commercial aircraft. We hope you enjoy it.
Follow Jeremy on Instagram (@type_1_pilot) for more insights into his incredible life and flying experiences.
