Director
Dr Damien Foong

Dr Foong graduated from The University of Queensland, Brisbane, with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, before continuing on to complete a Master of Medicine with a focus on Skin Cancer. After working as a general practitioner and managing director at a number of clinics across Australia, Dr Foong realised better resources were needed for those seeking skin cancer treatment and therefore established MyLab Pathology and the Logan Skin Clinic. Damien now coordinates with a team of over 50 doctors, laboratory technicians and support staff, while still operating as a general practitioner daily.

He went back to study medicine and graduated with honours in 2002. After general hospital rotations, he began training in psychiatry but after a few years his love of science drew him to anatomical pathology where he received his fellowship in 2012.
