About

Dr Andy Yeo is the current Chief and Senior Consultant with the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Changi General Hospital (CGH). He graduated from the Faculty of Medicine, National University of Singapore and started his orthopaedic training soon after.

He worked as a regular military doctor for a period and during that time, spent his efforts on developing trauma and surgical care for the army and also, developed his understanding of primary healthcare systems and medical administration.

After his specialist exams, he underwent a fellowship attachment to the Department of Traumatology in Leipzig University Hospital (Universitatsklinikum Leipzig) to further develop his understanding and skills in trauma and spine surgery so as to provide holistic care for his patients. He has a special interest in complex trauma and late trauma deformity correction where he utilises hexapod ring frames in their management.
