About of Den-ching A. Lee

Den-ching A. Lee is a Geriatric Psychiatrist based in Frankston, VIC. The practice location is on Moorooduc Highway, Frankston, VIC 3199, Australia. This role is for people in their later years who are dealing with both thinking and mood changes, where the mental side and daily life can become tightly linked.


Dementia is a key focus of care. For many families, dementia is not just about memory. It can also bring confusion, changes in behaviour, sleep problems, and feelings that don’t seem like “the usual self”. At times, it can affect how someone communicates, how they cope with stress, and how they manage everyday tasks. In cases like these, a geriatric psychiatrist helps make sense of what’s going on and supports a treatment plan that fits the person and their situation.


Care can look different from one family to the next. Sometimes it’s about supporting a diagnosis and helping people understand changes over time. Other times, the focus is on easing symptoms that make days harder, such as agitation, worry, or low mood. The aim is calm, practical support, with attention to comfort and safety, not just the label.


Experience, education, research, and clinical trial involvement are not listed here. If you’d like, it may help to contact the clinic directly to ask about training, how long the service has been running, and whether any research or study work is part of the care pathway.
