Foong obtained his MBBS from the University NSW with a Masters from Sydney University in breast surgery. He obtained his FRACS in 2010 in general surgery.
Foong has extensive post fellowship training in breast surgery. This includes working at the breast unit in Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney. Foong has done a fellowship in oncoplastic breast surgery at the Edinburgh Breast Unit in 2013, the largest breast cancer unit in the UK. His training in breast surgery was with the oncoplastic approach. This enables Foong, when performing breast surgery, to preserve the aesthetic look of the breast.
He also performs certain types of reconstructions which include implant-based reconstructions and latissimus dorsi flaps for breast cancer patients. Foong has public appointments with Monash Health (Casey Hospital, Dandenong Hospital and Monash Medical Centre Moorabbin).
