Ong Yee Siang
Head of Department, Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery (supervising department of the clinical fellowship)
SGH specialty page lists Ong Yee Siang as Head of Department from 2019 to current; the programme PDF names only 'Supervisor / Head of Department' for the fellowship in this department. The programme PDF does not name him as a fellowship director, so the role is stated as department head only. SingHealth profile (singhealth.com.sg/profile/ong-yee-siang) confirms Head & Senior Consultant, SGH.
