Prior to his dental career, he was active in competitive alpine skiing, and he represented Canada internationally as a member of the Canadian National Alpine Ski Team.

Following his ski career and dental school, Dr. Forsyth immediately went into general dental practice. He first practiced with his father, Dr. Iain Forsyth in North Burnaby, but now maintains a full time practice with Dr. John More at 2 Road and Blundell in Richmond, British Columbia.

Dr. Forsyth enjoys the technical aspects of dentistry, and particularly he relishes in building relationships and becoming a part of his patient’s extended families.
