Waverley Private Hospital would like to introduce you to Mr Eugene Ong, a general surgeon with an interest in colorectal surgery. Eugene is in a group practice with Mr Stephen Blamey and Mr Liang Low to provide a comprehensive gastrointestinal surgical service.

Eugene is a general surgeon who has undergone extensive training in the field of colorectal surgery. He has completed fellowships in colorectal surgery at the Cleveland Clinic, USA and Oxford University Hospitals, UK. He is especially skilled in minimally invasive surgery including laparoscopic (“Keyhole”), single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), endoscopic surgery (colonoscopy) and Trans-anal Endoscopic Microsurgery (TEMs) and is now considered an expert in the field. He has published and presented papers on minimally invasive surgery, has been a member of faculty on courses of minimally invasive surgery both in Australia and internationally and has trained numerous other surgeons in the technique.

Eugene is involved in teaching and research and has a number of peer-reviewed publications and presentations at national and international conferences as well as being an invited speaker.

Eugene treats the full spectrum of colorectal disease but has particular interest in the management of colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis), functional and pelvic-floor disorders (incontinence, constipation and rectal prolapse) and endometriosis involving the colorectum.

Eugene is dedicated to providing the best possible care for his patients and has a patient centered, friendly approach. He and the team will work together with the patient and referring doctors to ensure the very best outcomes are met.
