Dr Gong Ing San is a general surgeon at Gleneagles Hospital, Singapore.
He has an interest in urology, surgical oncology, and liver transplantation.
He graduated from the University of Singapore in 1971 and obtained his fellowship from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow in the UK in 1975. He was admitted as a fellow of the Academy of Medicine in Singapore in 1988, with a specialty in general surgery.
From 1975 to 1978, Dr Gong was a lecturer in the department of surgery at the University of Singapore.
He left for private practice in a medical practice group as the group surgeon until 1980. He later returned to institutional practice with the Ministry of Health in Singapore and was appointed the position of a senior registrar from 1980 to 1984.
During his tenure as a surgeon with the Ministry of Health, Dr Gong has been sent by the Ministry of Health to the National Cancer Center, Japan, for further training in gastric surgical oncology.
He was also sent by the Ministry to attachments in the Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute and Mount Sinai Hospital to further his exposure in surgical oncology.
He was then promoted by the Ministry of Health to be a consultant surgeon in 1985 and became the head of department of surgery, and accident and emergency, in 1990.
He remained as the head of department until he resigned from service in 1994, when he started his own private specialist practice in Gleneagles Hospital in March 1994.
Dr Gong has been closely associated with Dr K C Tan during his private practice in Gleneagles Hospital in doing liver surgery and has been involved with Dr Tan’s liver transplant programme in Singapore since 2002, when the first living related donor was done in a private hospital in Singapore.
