Geoff Toogood is a cardiologist in private practice and works at both The Alfred and Peninsula Health. He also works for the ACHS and the Cardiac Leadership group.

He is a volunteer speaker for beyondblue, a national organisation that works to raise awareness about anxiety and depression, reduce the associated stigma and encourage people to get help.

Geoff Toogood became a beyondblue speaker because of his own experiences of mental health conditions and he wishes to share this and offer hope and recovery to people touched directly and indirectly by these conditions.

Geoff’s interests include staying physically fit by swimming in the pool and open water, cooking, watching sport and spending time with his children.

A lesser known fact about Geoff is he’s planning to swim the English Channel and competes in Masters swimming at a national level.
