Dr Chit Cheng Yeoh
Consultant Medical Oncologist
MBBS, MD, BMedSc., MRCP (London), PhD
I am a Consultant Medical Oncologist specialising in acute oncology, melanoma, ovarian cancer and cancer of unknown primary.
I see patients who require specialist cancer care, with either two or more organs involved, which require urgent diagnostic investigation and treatment. I can potentially begin chemotherapy treatment within five days of referral.
I completed my specialist training at University College London and have practiced as a specialist consultant since September 2012. I continuously keep updated with news from different oncology subspecialties as well as interdepartmental subspecialties.
