Geoff Forbes established a private gastroenterology practice in 2015. His consulting rooms (Forbes Gastroenterology) are located at Unit 1, 54 Arnisdale Road, Duncraig. If an endoscopic procedure (gastroscopy or colonoscopy) or intravenous medication infusion is required, this can be undertaken at Sundew Day Surgery (Joondalup), and St John of God Hospital (Subiaco).
Dr Forbes graduated in Medicine from the University of Western Australia in 1985. He trained in Gastroenterology in Perth (Australia) and London (England), before being appointed as Gastroenterologist to Royal Perth Hospital in 1995. Dr Forbes has prided himself upon the delivery of quality care to all patients; this is reflected in previous positions such as Gastroenterology Departmental Head (2000-08), his teaching and mentoring roles, and in clinical research interests. He has an honorary professorial appointment at the University of WA.
Within Dr Forbes' general gastroenterology private practice, special areas of expertise are colorectal cancer screening and prevention, inflammatory bowel disease, and coeliac disease. He receives referrals for consultation, direct access gastroscopy, and direct access colonoscopy.
