KI Docs is written by Tim Leeuwenburg, one of the six doctors working at the Kangaroo Island Medical Clinic.
Tim has a background in emergency medicine before coming to Kangaroo Island in 2004 as a GP registrar and staying on as a partner after achieving FRACGP and FACRRM.
He picked up his DRANZCOG in Tasmania 2008 and recently spent 2011 upskilling in anaesthetics in NSW. He's passionate about rural medicine with a particular emphasis on emergency and trauma medicine (senior EMST instructor with the Royal Australian College of Surgeons). He won the Australian Trauma Society prize back in 2007 for his work on wildlife-vehicle collisions.
