About Sudesh Samuel
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I take questions relating to online healthcare news, community support, web research, medical travel and medical tourism, as well as online options for becoming more informed about medical conditions, drugs and treatments.

Experience
I have researched and surfed the web extensively for high quality, reputed and up-to-date sources of healthcare information. I am a licenced and practicing pharmacist specialising in the provision of healthcare communications material and drug information. I have run a drug information service at a national, tertiary, teaching hospital where my duties included managing several pharmacists in the development of continual education, providing drug information throughout the hospital and analyzing new and existing drugs for inclusion into the hospital formulary. I have been involved in several healthcare committees including patient safety, adverse drug reaction monitoring, antibiotic guidelines as well as a pharmacy and therapeutics committee. I was an on-call pharmacist with the national drug and poisons information centre. My research focus has been on medication review and I have presented findings on a renal medication review service and also published a review article on halting the allergic march in the World Allergy Organization Journal.
