Meet Associate Professor Sandra Krishnan

“At first, I wanted to be a teacher. But as a teenager, I remember feeling helpless in a hospital ward, trying to understand the situation. My grandfather was unwell, and the doctors were so busy and hard at work, but somehow, he seemed to come last.

It made an impression; I vowed to be different.

As soon as I started studying medicine, everything came together, and I immediately knew what I wanted to become. And as a young medical student in the operating theatre, I realised that this is where the science and art of medicine come together.

Today, as a surgeon, I get to operate using my hands and brain. It’s an incredible experience. Now that I’m also teaching surgery, I tell my students, ‘I owe it to humanity to help make you the best doctor.’

I love our practice because of its values, depth of caring and outstanding clinical work, but mainly it’s the people. We care about each other, not just outcomes, not just the bottom line. And we care about you. Nike says, ‘Just do it.’ My mantra is ‘Do it lovingly.’ And that’s what we do… we do it lovingly.

It’s a good fit for me. My grandfather would have been proud."
