To further refine his expertise, Dr. Koh spent a year (2013-2014) in Hong Kong at Queen Mary Hospital with the Division of Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Surgery and Liver Transplantation, which is well known for its advanced HPB (hepatobiliary and pancreatic) and transplant work. This overseas fellowship provided him with experience in liver transplantation and complex HPB malignancies. Clinically, his practice includes treating cancers of the liver, biliary tract, and pancreas, and managing minimally invasive surgical techniques in HPB surgery. He is also involved in living-donor liver transplantation.
