Welcome!
About
I am a dual-accredited Plastic Surgeon (UK & SG) based in Singapore, with subspecialty interests in aesthetic and hand surgery. I completed my higher plastic surgical training in the Oxford Deanery, where I consistently ranked among the top three in annual in-service examinations and achieved my Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) a year ahead of schedule. During this time, I also undertook advanced fellowships in Paris, Hong Kong, and Switzerland, gaining international exposure to diverse surgical techniques and aesthetic ideals.​
​
My approach blends international surgical precision with an understanding of diverse aesthetic ideals. I welcome patients from Singapore and around the world who seek safe, natural, and individualised results.
​
My Philosophy
My philosophy is guided by Form, Function, and Finesse - ensuring natural results, restored function, and refined detail in every procedure. Plastic Surgery, to me, should enhance well-being and confidence through safety, evidence-based care, and respect for individuality.
Most procedures are performed in accredited day-surgery centres in Singapore under local anaesthesia, with light sedation when required, allowing for a comfortable experience and faster recovery. Having trained in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States, I value the precision and efficiency of international surgical standards. My goal is to bring the same disciplined, transparent, and thoughtful approach to patient care here at home - ensuring outcomes that prioritise wellbeing and natural results.
​​​
Beyond Plastic Surgery
I hold a PhD from the University of Glasgow for research conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and have been recognised with several international awards. I have also developed training programmes for young surgeons, teaching microsurgery at the Royal Society of Medicine in London and aesthetic medicine on Harley Street.
​
Before the pandemic, I founded Doctor Stitch, the only house-call service dedicated to providing personalised wound care in Singapore. This experience inspired my award-winning submission for the 2024 BAAPS Face, Eyes & Nose Prize. Doctor Stitch has since evolved into a comprehensive post-operative cosmetic surgery aftercare service.
I continue to combine clinical practice, education and research, ensuring that my patients benefit from the latest international standards and techniques.​​
