Dr Teo has published widely in internationally acclaimed journals such as the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA Open) and the Bone & Joint Journal. He was part of the bisphosphonate-related atypical fractures group that published practice-changing results and helped guide management for successive patients afflicted with these fractures. A recipient of the global ESCEO-Eli Lilly Scholarship and Singhealth Publish! Award for his work in arthroscopy and arthroplasty, Dr Teo is well-respected as a Khoo Scholar and was a Singapore delegate at the Global Young Scientist Summit in 2021.
