Founded by Professor the Honourable Arthur KC LI in 1982, the Department of Surgery focuses on excellence in clinical work and scholarly research, with a strong commitment to education and training. Over past decades, these values have been at the core of our academic activities. Located within the Prince of Wales Hospital, the Department of surgery offers opportunities in clinical and laboratory research in basic sciences as well as biomedical engineering. We are also committed to improving care for our patients through research in clinical outcomes and have been at the forefront of both endoscopy and laparoscopy technology.
