Meet the Team

Here at OpAlert, we believe in industry experience. This is why our dedicated team consists of Surgeons, Anaesthetists, Surgical Assistants and Admin staff. OpAlert was created from the ground up, with our focus on improving the user experience for all members.

Through its simplicity of use, OpAlert’s design ensures a seamless journey. Starting with the upload of a case/list by the surgeon, or their admin staff, through to acceptance of the list by Anaesthetists and Surgical Assistants, the user’s experience is always of highest priority.

With the assistance of our experienced board, we have created a fantastic platform. We are always looking to improve our product, and since our inception, we have implemented many  great ideas from our membership.

Time to now meet our founding managing directors, who helped create OpAlert!

The Board

We have a fantastic team, which we call our “Board”. They are an integral part of the development of OpAlert, from the development side, to the marketing, notification pathways, and future proofing our service. Without them, OpAlert is not possible. The OpAlert board meets regularly to discuss OpAlert’s refinement and future. The board was hand picked to help us with some of the tricky decisions with the direction our company heads to, as well as giving a wider picture of what each doctor wants from OpAlert. We are proud to have 3 anaesthetists, 2 surgical assistants and 2 admin gurus as part of our board.
