Hello, I'm Shashika.
What drew me to general practice was the chance to do the kind of medicine where you actually get to know someone. Not just their symptoms, but the shape of their life. After years as a GP, I'm grateful that working online helps me do that for more people, in more places.
I'm a Fellow of the RACGP, and alongside that I've trained in counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy. That second qualification matters to me. A lot of what walks through the door is mental health in disguise, or sitting alongside whatever the obvious thing is. I want to be useful for both.
I see patients of all ages, with a particular fondness for mental health, paediatrics, chronic disease, and women's health. I speak English and Sinhalese.
Whatever's weighing on you, mind or body, we can take it on together.
Dr Shashika Jayakody
