Dr Wong Seng Weng was recently featured in Shin Min Daily News where he shared insights on the progress made in colorectal cancer care.​

Colorectal cancer outcomes are improving as medical care continues to advance.​

Three important developments in colorectal cancer care are mentioned: survival rates are improving, treatments are becoming more personalised through targeted and immune therapies, and early screening remains critical in detecting the disease earlier and improving outcomes.​

These advancements reflect how far cancer care has come and why regular screening and awareness remain essential for protecting long term health. 🩺✨​

Is cancer something you’re born with, or something that develops over time?​

In The Straits Times, Dr Wong Seng Weng, Medical Director at The Cancer Centre, shares that cancer is largely an acquired condition, shaped by genetic changes that build up over the years. While some people may inherit a higher risk, most cancers develop due to ageing, environmental exposure, and lifestyle factors.​

This is why prevention, regular screening, and early detection still matter.​

Read what Dr Wong Seng Weng, Medical Director at The Cancer Centre, shares on whether cancer is something we are born with or something that develops over time.​

Cancer risk is often shaped by a combination of inherited factors, lifestyle and environment, as well as random genetic changes that occur naturally as our cells renew.​

Understanding this helps us take a more informed and proactive approach to health through medical assessment and regular screening.​
