Overview

Background

Professor Eric Chung holds a full professorial academic appointment at the University of Queensland. He has also been appointed Associate Professor of Surgery at Macquarie University Hospital (Sydney) and has a Visiting Professorship at the Hong Kong University-Shenzhen Hospital. He is a certified Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) and the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand (USANZ). He is widely recognized as both Australia's leading surgeon and international expert in the field of male sexual, urinary, and reproductive health.

Professor Chung is the youngest recipient of the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand (USANZ) Medal for outstanding contribution to the Society and was Past Chair of the male LUTS and Andrology sections. He serves as an Advisor on the Panel of Clinical Experts (PoCE) for the Australian Government Department of Health. Internationally, he sits in executive positions in various organisations such as the President-elect of the International Society of Sexual Medicine (ISSM), Chair of the Education and Research Office on Sexual Medicine (EROS) at the Asia Pacific Society of Sexual Medicine (APSSM), and member of the International Research Working Group for the American Urological Association (AUA).

Professor Chung has a public appointment as a consultant urological surgeon at the Princess Alexandra Hospital, in charge of the urinary reconstructive and prosthetic urology program. He is the first urologist in Australia to complete an Andrology Fellowship accredited by the Sexual Medicine Society of North America (SMSNA) in 2010. Andrology is the study of Men’s Health, relating to male urinary, sexual and reproductive functions. He also received formal fellowship training in Urinary Reconstructive and Prosthesis Surgery in 2009 from Dr Ross Cartmill OAM, who is regarded as the father of modern urologic prosthesis in Australia. He is the only urologist in USANZ invited to serve on the recent 5th International Consultation on Sexual Medicine (ICSM) and the 7th International Consultation on Incontinence (ICI). He has been invited as a speaker and surgeon mentor at many national and international meetings, and authored more than 250 peer-reviewed papers and book chapters (including 10 major international and national guidelines)..
