Dr Khang Hee Gan is a paediatric emergency specialist and simulation educator based in Auckland, New Zealand. He has extensive experience in acute paediatric care and simulation-based training, with a strong focus on preparing healthcare teams to manage high-stakes, time-critical situations involving children.
His work centers on bridging the gap between knowledge and real-world performance, helping teams translate theory into effective action under pressure. Khang has trained across a range of international and local simulation programmes and has worked with multidisciplinary teams across primary care, urgent care, and tertiary hospital environments.
He brings a practical, systems-focused approach to training, using simulation not just as an educational tool, but as a method to identify risks, strengthen teamwork, and improve patient safety. Through Med Sim Solutions, Khang works with healthcare organisations seeking to move beyond traditional education.
His programmes use simulation as a tool for performance optimisation, systems improvement, and risk identification; helping teams uncover latent safety threats and prepare for their most critical clinical events. He has a particular interest in psychological safety, human factors, and team dynamics, and is known for creating engaging, high-impact learning environments that challenge participants while maintaining a strong sense of support and respect.
