Dr Yu Kong Leong

After graduating from medical school in 2001, Dr Yu was already interested in the field of oncology due to a strong family background in cancer.

His ambition to become an oncologist was later solidified when he was posted to SGH’s RTU in 2002 where he developed a passion in oncology care and sought to help cancer patients as much as he could.

Since finishing his specialist training in 2010, he returned to Sarawak where he became head of the RTU in 2013.

During his free time, Dr Yu is an active member of the MOS and regularly participates in cancer awareness programmes around the state as he believes that early detection and treatment are vital in treating cancer.
