Dr Ngaserin is passionate about cutting edge breast cancer surgical techniques that considers her patients’ oncological safety alongside their need for aesthetic, quality of life and function preserving solutions. She is particularly passionate about minimally invasive breast surgery, tailoring small ‘off-the-breast’ and ‘minimal-access’ incisions to provide the illusion of ‘nearly-scarless’ breast resections. She believes in meticulous diagnostic and therapeutic discussions, followed by the creation and tailoring of a personalised oncoplastic approach involving multidisciplinary services, to guide each patient and their loved ones through their treatment journey and survivorship.
Dr Ngaserin treats each patient with love, finds great fulfilment from being an integral part of their journey towards better health, and feels privileged to be entrusted with the responsibility to safeguard their lives.
