Robert Laidlaw

I am a Cosmetic Physician working across boutique clinics in Sydney, NSW Australia. I believe that nobody needs to have cosmetic procedures but if they might help them to feel better and be more confident in living their lives - I am keen to help you explore options. In my previous life, I was a Neurosurgical trainee and continue to operate in neurosurgery two days per week. My other passion is digital health. I am hungry to accelerate the world's real adaption of data-driven digital healthcare. I previously founded two digital health startups in Sydney, Australia, both of which are realising this mission. In 2019 I was selected to join the WHO roster of Digital Health experts, and I co-chaired the Blockchain Australia Healthcare working group. I continue to work regularly as a neurosurgical assistant and as the club Doctor for the North Sydney Bears Rugby League team. My 'why' is simple. I am helping more than a billion people within the next ten years by abolishing extreme poverty. The world is long overdue for a digital health renaissance, and my mission is to truly harness the power of digital health in all of its forms. I am an Australian trained medical doctor with experience in emergency medicine, sports medicine, drug and alcohol services and clinical research. My keywords: exponential, bleeding edge, equality, diversity & never be satisfied.
