About of Wee L. Ong

Dr Wee L. Ong is an oncologist based in Melbourne, VIC, Australia. Her focus is on caring for people who are dealing with cancer and related health issues, from diagnosis through treatment and ongoing follow-up. Cancer care can feel like a lot to take in, so the goal is usually to keep things clear, calm, and practical at every step.


In day-to-day care, Dr Ong works with patients across a range of cancer types. This includes prostate cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, anal cancer, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), testicular cancer, and salivary gland tumours. She also looks after people with brain tumours, such as astrocytoma, glioblastoma, and other brain tumour conditions.


There are also times when bone and skin-related conditions come up alongside cancer. Dr Ong’s work includes bone tumour care and, in some cases, cancers like Merkel cell carcinoma. She can also support patients who have had or are considering prostatectomy as part of their treatment path, and she takes frequent or urgent urination and enlarged prostate (BPH) into account when making treatment plans.


Some patients may come with questions about hormone and bladder symptoms as well. For example, erectile dysfunction (ED) and bladder-related symptoms can be part of the bigger picture, especially when prostate health is involved. Over time, treatment choices can affect how someone feels day to day, so it helps to talk through those changes early rather than waiting.


Dr Ong also has experience with a range of epidermolysis bullosa conditions, including dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Dowling-Meara epidermolysis bullosa simplex, and epidermolysis bullosa. These skin conditions can be complex, and they may need careful, steady support alongside other medical care.
