Dr Kishara Galappatthi

Hello! My name is Dr. Kishara Galappatthi, but you can call me Dr. Kish. I graduated with my medical degree from The University of Adelaide. I am originally from Sri Lanka, but I have completed all of my schooling and study in Australia, and grew up here. I have worked in South Australia and Victoria, both in hospitals and clinics, and have worked in regional and metropolitan locations. I enjoy and am confident in seeing all types of medical problems, and I have particularly experience and interests in chronic disease management, mental health problems, skin and dermatological problems, paediatrics (children's health), and men's health issues. In my spare time I like to stay up to date with my medical knowledge, but I am also a lover of sci-fi/fantasy books and movies, exploring the parks and trails in Victoria and particularly the Dandenong ranges, and playing board-games - often pulling my wife and friends into a nice long games session. I'd love to see you to help you out with any problems, so come down and let's have a chat.
