Biography

Mr Tan is a consultant oncoplastic breast surgeon. He graduated with MBBS and MSc degree, from Imperial College London in 1995 and was in the basic surgical training programmes in Cambridge and London leading to a MRCS diploma. He was then awarded with the MRC (UK) fellowship researching into genetic manipulation of immune and vascular cells of which culminated in PhD and MD degrees with University of London.

Mr Tan then went to Oxford University to become its lecturer in surgery and completed his higher surgical training programmes with the Oxford School of Surgery. In Oxford, he was awarded with Sir Peter Morris Surgeon Scientist in order to start up his research programme on the development of a vaccine for breast cancer. From Oxford, he went onto further sub-speciality training in oncoplastic surgery at the Royal Marsden Foundation Trust and the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. He then completed his general surgery and oncoplastic breast training, leading to his fellowship with the Royal College of Surgeons.
