Wednesday, 11 February, 2026
Dr Miklós Pohl OAM is a Melbourne-based plastic surgeon, violinist, violist, and founder of the Australian Doctor's Orchestra. Born in Hungary, he fled as a nine-year-old during the 1956 Revolution and arrived in Australia as a refugee. Music has been a constant thread through his life, from childhood violin lessons to performing chamber music across the globe.During COVID, Miklós wrote Music Is Medicine, featuring interviews with 28 doctor-musicians alongside his own reflections on amateur music making. The book was self-published through community pre-orders, with all proceeds going to Motor Neuron Disease research in memory of his friend, artist Tom Samek.At 78, Miklós continues to work part-time at the Skin Health Institute in Carlton, plays viola and violin regularly, and is planning his next musical adventure at the Aldeburgh Festival in the UK.Contact: mikipohl1@icloud.comBook: Music Is Medicine by Dr Miklós Pohl OAM (Amazon, Booktopia, or direct from the author with proceeds to Motor Neuron Disease research)People mentionedHazel Edwards OAM -- Author and writing mentor (Wisepreneurs Episode 43)Dr Michael Best (Wisepreneurs Episode 76)Laurie Smale (Wisepreneurs Episode 70)Chris Martin -- Professional violist, first conductor of the Australian Doctor's OrchestraRowan Thomas -- Anaesthetist, concert master for 12 yearsProfessor Benny Friedman -- Professor of Medicine, Sydney UniversityPhilip Griffin -- Plastic surgeon and violist (deceased)Tom Samek -- Artist (Hobart), book proceeds dedicated in his memoryOrganisations and placesAustralian Doctor's Orchestra (founded 1993)Skin Health Institute, Carlton, MelbourneMount Buller Chamber Summer School for StringsAmateur Chamber Music Players (international network)Aldeburgh Festival (Snape Maltings), UKLeopold Auer Festival, Veszprém, HungaryThe Barge, Brooklyn Bridge, New YorkPlease Donate to Motor Neuron Disease, Victoria: MND Victoria Practical ideas for independent professionals building practice on their own terms.
