Specialties

Mr. Terence Tan is a Melbourne-trained Neurosurgeon and Spine surgeon who specialises in the surgical and non-surgical management of brain and spine conditions. His subspecialty interests include the treatment of degenerative spinal disease (including disc protrusions of the neck and back, spinal stenoses, sciatic leg pain), spinal tumours and spinal deformity. A patient-centric approach based on achieving the best patient outcomes, risk-minimization, and clear communication is central to his practise. In select patients, minimally-invasive spine surgery, and enabling spinal technologies are utilized.

This is where he received rigorous training in spinal deformity correction, removal of spinal metastases and spinal trauma management from world-leading surgeons.

In addition to surgical work, Terence also devotes time to clinical research. He has authored over 25 manuscripts and keeps abreast of the latest research findings in brain and spine surgery research. He is currently adjunct research fellow at the Department of Surgery, Monash University.
