Dr Marc Taussik

My subspeciality interests are paediatrics, regional and complex airway management. I’m passionate about education and helping anaesthetic residents increase exposure to regional anaesthesia and excel through the FRCA. Outside of work I’m most likely to be found trying to beat my Garmin stats on the bike or working my way up the Zwift league tables. I’m excited to be representing Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust at SETSA and showcasing the amazing work being done here.
