About of Dona P. Jayakody

Dona P. Jayakody is an Audiologist based in Perth, WA, working from 35 Stirling Highway, Perth, WA 6009, Australia. Appointments are often about the everyday side of health—things like feeling worn out by noise, missing key bits of conversation, or getting concerned about memory and understanding.


In many cases, Dona looks after people dealing with hearing loss. That can show up slowly, or it can feel like it has come on quickly. Either way, it affects how comfortable you feel at home, at work, and with family. Audiology care can also help when sound feels “muffled”, speech is harder to follow, or hearing seems to change from day to day.


Dona’s work also covers Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia. Hearing and memory can overlap in real life. People may struggle to follow what’s being said, get confused in busy places, or have more trouble communicating. When this happens, it’s not just about hearing levels. It’s also about support, routine, and finding ways to make day-to-day conversations easier.


Over time, this kind of care means spending time on what’s going on for the person, not just the “test result”. It’s about listening to the concerns, making sense of them, and then working out the next steps. At times, that might involve practical changes around communication, while other times it’s about planning audiology support for clearer hearing.


Dona’s background is in audiology training, with day-to-day focus on how people hear and communicate. The aim is simple: help patients feel more confident and reduce the strain that can come with hearing and memory changes.


At the moment, there isn’t detailed information listed here about research projects or clinical trials. What is clear, though, is the clinic focus: hearing loss and memory-related conditions, for patients and families in Perth who need clear, grounded support.
