Dr Peter Tan is a haematologist specialising in haematological oncology, while also treating general haematological conditions including obstetric haematology, bleeding and clotting disorders. He consults at Western Haematology & Oncology Clinics and Royal Perth Hospital.
He understands that blood disorders are often complex and prioritises the provision of comprehensive and clear explanations. A new diagnosis may often cause a level of stress and uncertainty for patients and their families, therefore he plans to demystify the process of investigations and therapeutic options.
Dr Tan obtained his medical degree from the University of Western Australia (UWA) and commenced training at Royal Perth Hospital. Dr Tan completed his specialist training in haematology and bone marrow transplantation at St Vincent’s Hospital, Sydney. He obtained specialist qualifications in clinical and laboratory haematology from the RACP and RCPA.
Dr Tan held the position of the Kefford Leukaemia Research Fellow at the Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, for three years. Dr Tan performed clinical and translational research in blood cancers in conjunction with the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases (ACBD) and obtained a research degree at Monash University. He has published and presented early phase clinical trial findings in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia at international meetings. Dr Tan co-designed a national clinical trial conducted by the Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group (ALLG).
