Dr Anna Forbes is a UK-trained medical doctor specialising in Integrative Medicine. This is an increasingly popular approach that combines the best of Conventional Medicine, Natural Medicine and Functional Medicine. Addressing the root cause of illness, using a drug-free treatment approach, allows us to support the body to return to a healthy balanced state. Disease is almost always related to a complex combination of environmental, nutritional and psycho-emotional factors. Integrative Medicine takes a whole-person approach to understanding ilness and health.
Dr. Forbes qualified in 2006 and left NHS work in 2011. She has trained extensively since 2008 in different types of Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, Mind-Body Medicine, Nutrition, Functional Medicine, Intravenous Nutrient Therapy, Plasmolifting and Scenar therapy.
She also practises Bio-chemical Individualism, which uses a scientific approach to body typing, providing personalised diet and supplement protocols according to body type. The body type that we have determines our disease susceptibility. Different body types lack certain enzymes that require specific combinations of food groups and enzyme supplementation.
She is particulary passionate about the immune system and the gut-brain axis. Dr Forbes is one of the few Doctors in the UK offering Micro-immunotherapy, a natural and non-invasive protocol for immune system stablisation and optimisation.
Dr. Forbes works with all chronic (long-term) disease using an Integrative and Functional Medicine approach to assessment and treatment. Typically her patients have either hit a brick wall within the conventional medicine framework, are looking for a drug-free approach to treatment or simply want improved outcomes by using a combination of conventional and Integrative Medicine. As the founding member of the The Forbes Clinic of Integrative Medicine she works with an expert team of Natural Medicine Doctors, holistic therapists alongside cutting edge technology and devices, to provide a fully comprehensive health service for the whole family.

Thank you!
I had my initial integrative health assessment with Dr Anna Forbes and she put me at ease straight away. She asked thoughtful, probing questions and created a space where I felt comfortable being open and honest about who I am and why I came for the assessment. The session felt calm, structured and genuinely personalised, with clear explanations and a holistic perspective that connected the dots rather than treating things in isolation. I left feeling listened to, reassured, and confident about the next steps.

Thank you for sharing your experience : )
Loved talking to Dr Forbes yesterday. I’m looking forward to working with Dr Forbes in my son’s healing journey. I am so glad I chose The Forbes Clinic all those months ago. It’s been such an emotional experience for me to see all the underlying issues that my son has but at the same time a hopeful feeling of relief knowing that Dr Forbes and Jo will do the best they can to help us in this very difficult moment in our lives.

Thank you for your kind words : )
My initial consult with Dr Forbes was incredible. So thorough! After having recently moved to the UK, I wanted to find the best of best. I am happy to say that I'm so relieved I reached out to Dr Forbes. She has a wonderful demeaner and makes you feel that together you can overcome your health concerns. She is an excellent doctor and I feel my health is in safe hands under her guidance. I'm looking so forward to my next catch-up appointment with her.

This is brilliant to hear! Thank you so much for your kind words : )
Dr Forbes is prepared and informed. I felt like she had been thinking about my situation and was ready to offer me her thoughts. She was kind and aware when talking to me and I felt her calm and organised approach really helps me see that although this is a long journey it will be worth it.

Thank you for sharing your experience : )
