Dr Geoff Lee

Associate Professor Geoff Lee is an accomplished cardiologist specialising in arrhythmias and ablation. With his primary practice based in Flemington, Melbourne, he serves patients at the prestigious Melbourne Private Hospital. Dr Lee is a male practitioner with extensive expertise in his field.

Dr Lee obtained his medical degree from the University of Otago Medical School in New Zealand in 2000. He then completed his general cardiology training at the renowned Royal Melbourne Hospital in 2008. Dr Lee's dedication to advancing the field of cardiology led him to pursue further studies at the University of Melbourne, where he successfully earned his PhD under the guidance of Professor Kalman from 2009 to 2012.

During his doctoral research, Dr Lee made significant contributions to the understanding of arrhythmias by creating innovative epicardial mapping software and identifying the first epicardial atrial fibrillation rotor in humans. His groundbreaking work resulted in the recognition and praise of the medical community, earning him prestigious awards such as the NHMRC Gustav Nossal Postgraduate Scholarship and a Neil-Hamilton Fairley Early Career Fellowship.

Dr Lee focused his research on developing advanced methods for complex 3-D electro-anatomical mapping of arrhythmias and the ablation of atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. Seeking to expand his expertise, he completed a comprehensive clinical and research fellowship with Professor Schilling at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London's leading quaternary referral center for electrophysiology.

Currently, Dr Lee leads the Rapid Access Arrhythmia Clinic at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, where he also plays a crucial role in the ICD clinic. Patients can seek his expertise for device implantation, electrical studies, and ablations at both the Royal Melbourne Hospital and the Melbourne Private Hospital. Dr Lee's profound understanding of arrhythmias, coupled with his impressive research accomplishments, has firmly established him as an influential figure within the medical community. His ongoing contributions significantly contribute to advancing knowledge and treatment options in the field of arrhythmias and ablation.
