Dr Nirmala Godavitharana

I graduated from the Ruhuna Medical Faculty in Sri Lanka in 2002 and have been practicing as a General Practitioner in Darwin, Northern Territory since 2013. My career began at Palmerston Medical Clinic, where I worked until 2018 before joining Top End Medical Clinic in Casuarina. I am a proud member of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, having obtained my fellowship in 2017.

My areas of passion within general practice include women’s health, skin cancer medicine, and performing minor procedures. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active as a goal defender in netball, playing tennis socially, and indulging in Latin American dance styles.providing individual and tailored support within a space that is non-judgemental and safe, whether that be to help clients explore what their symptoms might mean, providing useful evidence-based skills, or assisting clients in achieving their goals and increasing their quality of life.
