About
Dr. Kannasanthan is a Vascular and Endovascular surgeon with a particular interest in thoracic and abdominal aortic disease, cerebrovascular pathology, and thoracic outlet syndrome. He grew up in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - a city of nine million - and later immigrated to Halifax, where he earned his MD at Dalhousie Medical School. During that time, he was honored to receive the National Student Research Award from the Canadian Society of Vascular Surgery. He completed his Vascular Surgery residency at McGill University, where he served as Chief Resident and received the Outstanding Resident Teacher Award. His training included electives in high-volume open aortic centers in Halifax and Newfoundland in addition to involvement in complex endovascular and hybrid aortic procedures at McGill. Outside the OR, he has worked as a surgical consultant for the TV show Transplant and help produce episodes for the Audible Bleeding podcast (Society of Vascular surgery).
When he is not in scrubs, you will probably find him experimenting in the kitchen or watching horror movies.
