Dr Lee Ser Yee is a general surgeon at Mount Elizabeth Hospital, Singapore.
He is a dual USA fellowship-trained hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and liver transplant surgeon, having completed fellowships in centres such as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and the New York Presbyterian Hospital-Weil Cornell Medical Center.
He subspecialises in hepatopancreatobiliary surgery and liver transplantation. His area of expertise lies in minimally invasive techniques such as laparoscopic and robotic surgery in the treatment of liver, gallbladder and pancreatic diseases and cancers.
Prior to private practice, Dr Lee was a founding member and senior consultant at the department of HPB and transplant surgery at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH). He served as the director of the laparoscopic programme and the surgical skills training programme at the SingHealth Surgical Skills Centre.
He started his medical training at the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 1996 and completed his training in general surgery, HPB surgery, and liver transplantation at SGH and National Cancer Centre, Singapore.
He is passionate about training and education and was an associate professor in Duke-NUS Medical School and a senior clinical lecturer in NUS. He has also chaired and conducted many advanced surgical courses and has been invited to give lectures at several conferences worldwide.
He has authored more than 150 scientific publications, including top journals such as Annals of Surgery, as well as written 2 surgical books and 70 book chapters.
