Coles Against the Odds: New Zealand's first women doctors at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In 2025, the year Otago Medical School celebrates 150 years, 50 per cent of graduates are women. Back in 1891, by contrast, when Emily Siedeberg, who would go on to become the school's first woman graduate, applied for entrance it was not at all clear that it would be granted.
This book traces the paths of the women who, between the 1890s and 1967, battled indifference and chauvinism — and later many of the other challenges that faced women in the professions — to become New Zealand's first women doctors.
