-Dr. Chitradai Deonarine
PERSONS get ill every day but while mentally fighting to get better helps, there are still heroes who work around to clock to ensure that you get back on your feet.
Young, Dr. Chitradai Nadira Deonarine is one of those heroes who work around the clock to ensure that medically ill persons are treated.
Deonarine, who completed her high school education at the Berbice High School, went on to pursue a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology from the University of Guyana, Doctor of Medicine (MD) programme at Rajiv Gandhi University of Science and Technology (RGUST) and completed the Caribbean Association of Medical Councils (CAMC) exam.
The young doctor aspires to first complete her medical internship at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) and a residency programme in internal medicine.
“I also aspire to be a good, caring and humble doctor who will help anyone in need,” said Deonarine, adding that her biggest motivation comes from her passion to be the best.
She is also motivated by her parents, especially her father who broke the cycle of marriage of young girls, because growing up it was uncommon for a father to propel their daughters towards higher education and more so, having the courage and trust to send them alone into the city to further their studies.
Deonarine encouraged persons to work relentlessly, be their own cheerleader, know that there will be good and bad days and be around people who fuel your own kind of positive energy.
