Default Can anyone recommend a good nuerologist in Sydney?

Hello all,

I'm new on here and have been suffering from PCS for around 5 months. Some days are not too bad, others, like today, feel as if someone has come along and replaced my brain with a damp sponge.

I think its time to see a neurologist and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good one in Sydney, Australia?

Thanks for any help and I wish everyone well in their recovery

Hi, Huxsted

I went to Rosemary Boon in Parramatta. She is a nuero psychologist who works with a neurologist nearby. Sorry I can't remember his name but she took me to him to have my QEEG completed. It was well with the trip from New Zealand.

She also deals with ADHD in children. I thoroughly recommend that you contact her, of all the specialists that I have seen, she completed tests that showed why I had the problems. Unfortunately we have recently shifted and my "brain accident" file is still packed so I can't give you the exact address.

I think you could google her and find her address. I am glad that you found this site and are looking for help. good luck,

Lynlee

My friend sees a neuro at one of the hospitals in the Western suburbs that she's really happy with. This one bulk bills so if you live out that way, that's always a bonus.

I haven't been able to contact her tonight, but I'll try again tomorrow and see if I can get the name for you.

Sorry but I haven't been able to contact my GF yet, but I know it's Dr Susan ???? (some-one) and I think she's mostly at the Liverpool Hospital.

I have heard very good reports about the Sydney Neurology Brain & Mind Research Institute in Camberdown, that you might want to look into. They have a group of about 6 neurologists who treat a wide variety of neurological conditions.

Here's their website which has some good info on it, including some information about each of their neuros, and contact details. http://www.sydneyneurology.com/

Other than that, I have another GF who sees Prof. Watson at the SAN.

and I know some-one else who sees:
Assoc. Prof. Jonathan Ell
Suite 8/80 Kitchener Parade
Bankstown NSW 2200

He also has rooms at:
Suite 2/a 155 Missenden Road
Newtown NSW 2042

I hope you find that helpful. If not, could you please let me know if you wish me to keep trying to contact my friend.
