She graduated from the National University of Singapore Medical School in 1987 and trained in plastic and reconstructive surgery in the regional plastic centre at Mount Vernon Hospital in Northwood, Queen Mary University Hospital in Roehampton and Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Aylesbury.
Mrs Kat undertook her 18-month breast fellowship at the regional breast centre based at the University Hospital of Manchester and at the Plastic and Reconstruction Unit at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, USA. She then undertook a six-month cosmetic fellowship at the renowned Wellington Hospital in London gaining experience in endoscopic browlifts, facelifts, eyelid surgery, rhinoplasties and body contouring including liposuction and abdominoplasties.
