Philosophy

Your care comes first, always

Dr Trinh is known for her meticulous surgical technique, clear explanations, and the time she takes to ensure patients understand their options. From early-stage thyroid nodules to advanced breast cancer requiring complex reconstruction, she manages the full spectrum of cases.

She works closely with multidisciplinary teams including medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and breast care nurses at Nepean Cancer Care Centre. Her particular interest is oncoplastic breast surgery, which integrates plastic surgery techniques into cancer operations to achieve the best possible cosmetic outcomes.
