Dr Lisa Lin

MBBS, FANZCA

After completing my medical degree at the University of Adelaide and internship at Royal Adelaide Hospital, I worked at several public hospitals in Melbourne. As part of my anaesthetic training, I worked in Geelong Hospital, Monash Health Network, St Vincent’s Hospital and Box Hill Hospital.

I also spent one year training at the National University Hospital in Singapore and a fellowship year specializing in ultrasound guided peripheral nerve blocks at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto, Canada.

My subspecialty is particularly useful for pain management in limb surgeries.

I published a review article “Evidence basis for the use of ultrasound for upper-extremity blocks” in the journal of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2010.

My other practice areas also include orthopaedics, ENT, ophthalmic, paediatrics, general surgery and trauma surgery.

 I am a visiting anaesthetist at Austin Hospital and The Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital and continue involvement in anaesthetic trainee education and ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia workshops.
