Dr Shamila Palipana is a highly qualified General Practitioner working in Brisbane. Dr Palipana conducts telehealth anaesthetic reviews on patients undergoing surgery or minor procedures on behalf of Dr Tharindu Vithanage, an anaesthetist working in Brisbane and surrounding suburbs. These forms are only filled out by Dr Palipana for the sole purpose of conducting a thorough peri-operative assessment of all patients undergoing an anaesthetic by Dr Vithanage. This increases patient safety as well as provides patients with the opportunity to discuss any concerns prior to their upcoming anaesthetic.
