Hey there! I’m Dr. Rashmira Balasuriya, a medical doctor currently navigating postgraduate training in Family Medicine in Sri Lanka. I have a special interest in Medical Education so many of my blog posts are catered for medical students and junior doctors in Sri Lanka who are also navigating the Sri Lankan Medical System. I also firmly believe in reducing the amount of misinformation and myths out there so there are a number of posts for the general public – simplifying and demystifying the medical world!
