Show Notes

Dr Neela Janakiramanan is a hand surgeon, based in Melbourne. The last two years have been trying for her and her colleagues, there is a significant physical and emotional toll of tending to patients during a once in a generation global pandemic.

 

Putting patients’ needs ahead of her own is what Neela believes in most, she’s a proud advocate for patient-focused care. She believes it’s an essential part of medical training, that young surgeons see patients as people, not just bodies to be operated on.

These ideas are explored in her brand new novel, The Registrar, available at all good bookstores. The Registrar has the frenetic pace of a psychological thriller and offers a rare insight into the world of a surgeon-in-the-making, from one who has survived it.
