Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dr Elaine Lockhart - Consultant psychiatrist for children and young people (UCD Class of 1988).

Q: What attracted you to psychiatry, and how did your early experiences shape that path?

Her early clinical experiences in pediatrics sparked an interest in the broader, family-centered care of children. A pivotal five-week psychiatry attachment with Prof. Ivor Brown and exposure to pediatric liaison psychiatry helped crystallize her commitment to child and adolescent psychiatry, blending medical care with psychological and social aspects.

Dr Elaine Lockhart - Consultant psychiatrist for children and young people (UCD Class of 1988).

Q: How did you decide to study medicine and end up at UCD?

Elaine describes growing up with doctor parents, initially considering other paths, but biology and the desire to help others steered her to medicine, and she felt UCD was the right fit after visiting Belfield and recognizing the integration of academics and clinical exposure.

Commandant Dr Fiachra Lambe - Specialist in General Practice and Military Medicine (UCD Class of 2014).

Q: When did you first decide to pursue medicine, and how did you end up at UCD?

The decision was driven by curiosity about how people work and solve problems, which led to pursuing medicine and ultimately joining UCD through a graduate-entry pathway after studying sports science; the journey included strong social support and connections at UCD.

Dr Tomas O'Neill - Plastic Surgery consultant in St Vincent's University Hospital (UCD Class of 2006).

Q: How did you navigate training across Ireland, the UK, and Australia to become a leading cleft and craniofacial surgeon?

I pursued a mix of rigorous clinical training, fellowships, and international opportunities; I took advantage of schemes like the residency and later fellowships, moved for opportunities with mentors, and used electives and research to build a competitive portfolio that led to positions in Scotland, Belfast, and Adelaide.

Dr Tomas O'Neill - Plastic Surgery consultant in St Vincent's University Hospital (UCD Class of 2006).

Q: What initially drew you to medicine and surgery, and how did your early experiences shape your path?

A lifelong fascination with surgery sparked by witnessing the difference a skilled surgeon can make in a child's life, especially in cleft cases, plus exposure to paediatrics and early patient contact that taught me to talk to people and relate beyond science.
