Dr Elliot Wollner is an anaesthetist at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre. He completed his training in anaesthesia in Melbourne, completed a Masters of Public Health at Columbia University in New York City, and then undertook a global health equity fellowship at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF), where he later became faculty. His main areas of interest include increasing access to safe anaesthesia and perioperative care in low- and middle-income countries through research, education, and collaborative partnerships.
