Summary

I am a motivated and enthusiastic orthopaedic surgeon with over 5 years of clinical experience. I have worked in tertiary hospitals and rural settings in primary healthcare centres. My predominant clinical experience is in the orthopaedic setting, I have worked in an outpatient department with high patient volume, providing care to patients with acute illnesses. I have also worked with allied medical professionals to provide comprehensive care for patients with chronic diseases and have drafted care plans. I have experience in adult and paediatric trauma evaluation. As well as in evaluation of occupational and sports injuries, having assisted in over 900+ surgeries. In addition, I am also proficient in post-operative management.

I have passed the AMC MCQ exam, with a high score and am eligible for provisional AHPRA registration. I have excellent communication skills and have worked consistently and diligently to excel in my profession. I love being challenged and learning new skills.

Currently, I am working as an instructor at a private institute in St.Kilda, tutoring students in their preparation for the AMC examination. And I look forward to pursuing my passion for working as an orthopaedic surgeon and contribute to the community in which I live.
