Dr. Lindsey Strauss

Lindsey Strauss is a South African clinician and academic contributor in the field of anaesthesia, with a particular focus on perioperative care in complex and vulnerable patient populations. Published in regional medical journals, Strauss has engaged with pressing healthcare challenges relevant to Southern Africa, combining clinical insight with practical guidance for frontline practitioners.

Research contributions center on paediatric anaesthesia and the management of high-risk conditions, including phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas in children, as well as perioperative considerations in common procedures such as adenotonsillectomy. This work reflects strength in translating specialised knowledge into pragmatic frameworks that support safe anaesthetic practice in diverse clinical settings.

More recent scholarship addresses the emerging public health implications of nyaope use and its anaesthetic implications, highlighting responsiveness to evolving substance use patterns in South Africa. Based on the limited available publications at present, Strauss’s profile demonstrates a commitment to context-specific anaesthetic practice and education within the regional healthcare landscape.
