We, at Canberra Geriatrics, strive to add quality to your life.

Our experienced and compassionate specialists provide expert medical advice to the people aged 65 and over, in Canberra and surrounding regions.

Working in partnership with you, your family, and your General Practitioner (GP), we aim to optimise your health and enable you to achieve the best medical and functional outcome that is possible.

Our Values

Professional

Our qualified and experienced specialists provide advice, based on current clinical evidence.

All our specialists are members of their respective Colleges and Professional Organisations.

Our specialists constantly update their clinical knowledge and are involved in the teaching and training of junior doctors and other health professionals.

Located in Deakin, with ample free parking, our clinic is easy to get to. Our dedicated receptionists are friendly and available to facilitate your requirements.

Responsive

We listen to your (and your family's) needs and formulate strategies for you to achieve them.

We aim to provide you with initial appointments, at the earliest possible.

We communicate and liaise with other care providers to ensure that your requirements are met.
