Presenters

Dr Nadi Pandithage

Dr Nadi is a senior emergency physician who has worked in Darwin for over 20yrs. Dr Nadi joined PoCUS enthusiasts late in her career when she noted that there was a deficit in PoCUS teaching and training in Darwin, and wanted to train herself up so she could support her trainees. After completing a Diploma of Diagnostic Ultrasound in Emergency Medicine Dr Nadi is totally swept off her feet with all the ways that PoCUS can make medical practice safer, more time efficient and just so much better for everybody! Dr Nadi is now the Chair of ACEM’s ED Ultrasound Committee, the Clinical Lead of ED ultrasound training at RDPRH and a passionate supporter of PoCUS teaching not only in the NT but worldwide! Dr Nadi is really looking forward to returning to Nhulunbuy to run another PoCUS Workshop.
