About Sir Peng Tee Khaw

Director, UK National Institute for Health Research Biomedical Research Centre in Ophthalmology, London, UK

A little-known or interesting thing about you...

I am a drummer – and have been lucky enough to play live with some of my rock heroes.

If you weren’t an ophthalmologist...

I would love to be a general inventor – there are so many things that need improving with simple modifications.

A person in your field you look up to…

George Spaeth – a wise, wonderful clinician who has contributed so much to the speciality and thinking within it, and who is full of humanity. Passion, but with the saving balance of compassion.
