Lydia Osmers: Jumping Hurdles- From Medicine to MS and Beyond AMSA Ampoule

    • Medicine

Dr. Lydia Osmers is a retired medical practitioner who is an Ambassador for Multiple Sclerosis Limited (MS). As a third-year medical student at Monash University, she began to experience reduced vision and impaired mobility, and was subsequently diagnosed with MS. Lydia was kind enough to sit down with Vithoo and discuss how, in spite of all these challenges, she has remained resilient and continues to look at the bright side of life, whilst providing valuable insights into how to care for people with chronic disease.


Lydia has undertaken many public speaking engagements, and as an MS ambassador for Multiple Sclerosis Limited, has spoken at numerous fundraising events and participates in a lecture series called “Living with a Disability” through the Melbourne Medical School.
