OVERVIEW

The KK Urogynaecology Unit was formed in April 1999. It was formerly part of the Department of Gynaecologic Oncology & Urogynaecology. The unit aims to set standards in Urogynaecology and Pelvic Floor Reconstruction.

Since restructuring, the unit has grown from strength to strength to become a one-stop Urogynaecology screening, diagnostic and treatment centre for Urogynaecology patients in KKH
