It is with a sense of humility that I thank you for the honour of following in the footsteps of Sir Zelman Cowan, Sir William Refshauge, Professor John Loewenthal, Dame Leonie Kramer, Alan Jones AO and other outstanding Australians in delivering the Malcolm Gillies Memorial Oration.
You honour me further in asking me to do so in one of the great institutions of Australian Healthcare - The Royal North Shore Hospital.
