Lucy Miller BM, MRCP, FRCA

Lucy Miller is a Persistent Pain Consultant and Director at Vitalise Health Limited and Chronic Pain lead at North Devon District Hospital. She graduated from Southampton University in 1999 and completed her pre-registration training which included general practice within the Dorset region. It was during this time that she decided to pursue a career in hospital medicine. She accepted a position on the newly formed ‘critical care’ rotation and during the intensive care attachment decided to complete the MRCP and commence anesthetic training. Once novice training was completed she had the opportunity to spend 18 months in South Island New Zealand practicing both anesthetics and as a ‘Flying Doctor’; a truly fabulous experience. She thinks the strength of regional anesthesia in the Christchurch Hospital first sparked my interest in pain medicine.
