'Humbling': Aussie doctor reveals what it was like inside Westminster Abbey at Charles' coronation

Australian doctor Daniel Nour has revealed watching the coronation of King Charles III felt like he "was witnessing history before [his] eyes".

Nour, the founder of not-for-profit mobile medical service Street Side Medics, was one of 14 notable Australians chosen to attend the coronation alongside Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and other Aussie dignitaries.

He said it was difficult to describe what it was like to sit inside Westminster Abbey and watch such a special event.

"It's hard to put it into words, if I'm being completely honest with you," he said on Weekend Today this morning.

"It felt surreal. You know, it was humbling to be in that room. I felt extraordinarily honoured... and the room was alive, the room was emotional and it really felt amazing to be in that room."Weekend Today.

Not only did Nour get to be in the room as King Charles and Queen Camilla were crowned, he also got to watch it while sitting next to Julie Bishop and legendary singer Lionel Richie.

He even snapped a couple of selfies with them, which Bishop shared on her Instagram page.

Nour joked that he's now calling Richie his friend, but wasn't able to convince him to perform at his wedding.

"I've exchanged numbers with him, which is pretty wild. I've told him to come and sing at my wedding, which he said he can't but anyway... It was amazing, it was absolutely amazing. It was cool. It was a cool room," he said.

In addition to meeting high-profile guests, Nour found the tradition of the coronation memorable to witness as the "history and the significance" of the event unfolded before him.

One of his highlights was seeing Charles and Camilla walk into Westminster Abbey at the start of the ceremony and then leave with crowns on their heads.

Nour admits he's still stunned to have been one of 2000 people invited to attend the coronation, but feels he is representing anyone who gives back to their community.

"I can't really understand why me. There's nothing special about me, but I, I do think that you know, I, I'm representing more than myself... and with me today, I've got all my supporters, the board of Street Side Medics, our volunteers and the patients that we serve on a daily basis all being recognised for their significant contribution," he said.

A very worthy invitee, Nour is helping to provide healthcare for vulnerable people and those experiencing homelessness with the not-for-profit mobile medical centre Street Side Medics.

As the 2022 Young Australian of the Year, Nour also had the chance to speak to Queen Elizabeth II via video chat. Street Side Medics shared a clip from the discussion on its Instagram page in tribute to Her Majesty after her passing last year.

The late Queen told Nour his service sounds like "wonderful work to be doing".
