Hi, my name's Keertana, I'm a medical student and one of the article writers for SimpleMed. I initially got involved with SimpleMed as a way to boost my portfolio, but realised it had an amazing potential to boost the learning of both myself and other medical students.

When I’m not busy sobbing over my workload, I love cooking and finding new recipes - and also watching the same sitcoms I’ve seen hundreds of times before on repeat. I’ve also got a special interest in medical education (hence the involvement with SimpleMed!) and spend a lot of my weekends presenting and teaching aspiring medical students at national conferences all over the country.

Despite the many, MANY times I’ve been asked by family what I’d like to specialise in, like many others I have absolutely no idea and actually really enjoy the uncertainty and how broad my learning can be at this stage.
