Welcome to the world of advanced surgical expertise and compassionate care! Meet Dr. Tan Yu-Meng, an exceptional surgeon specializing in peritoneal malignancies. With extensive training and qualifications, Dr. Tan stands out as one of Asia's few surgeons skilled in this highly specialized field.

Dr. Tan's impressive qualifications include an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine & Surgery) with First Class Honors and Distinction from the prestigious University of London. He is also a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh (RCSEd). Driven by an unyielding thirst for knowledge and excellence, he pursued further training in advanced HPB surgery and liver transplantation at the renowned Liver Unit of Queen Elizabeth Hospital in the United Kingdom. Additionally, he gained expertise in living donor liver transplantation in Japan. His commitment to improving patient outcomes and pushing boundaries has earned him recognition, such as the Young Surgeons Award at the Asian Surgical Congress in 2001.

Dr. Tan's groundbreaking achievements have left an indelible mark in the field of surgery. He led his team to perform the first successful split liver transplant at SGH, and in 2009, he accomplished Asia's first combined Heart-Liver Transplantation—an extraordinary feat. He also played a significant role in advancing the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies. Leading a multidisciplinary team from the National Cancer Centre (NCC) and Washington Cancer Institute, he successfully adopted the techniques and protocols of peritonectomy and HIPEC (Sugarbaker procedure) pioneered by renowned surgeon Dr. Paul Sugarbaker.

Passionate about gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary-pancreatic (GI-HPB) surgery and cancer treatment, Dr. Tan joined the department of surgical oncology at the National Cancer Centre in 2003 as a consultant. His expertise in managing peritoneal surface malignancies has been evidenced by his pivotal role in adopting state-of-the-art techniques from world-renowned experts.

Dr. Tan's commitment to advancing medical knowledge extends beyond his surgical achievements. He is an avid academic surgeon, having authored over 90 articles in leading surgical journals, including the prestigious 'Annals of Surgery.' His contributions as a lead and corresponding author encompass a wide range of topics in surgical diseases. Dr. Tan's expertise has also been recognized through his role as an examiner for the Royal College of Edinburgh and Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine.
