Stephanie E. Hesselson is a cardiologist based in Darlinghurst, NSW. Her clinic is at 405 Liverpool Street, Darlinghurst, NSW 2010. Cardiac care can feel overwhelming, especially when symptoms come on fast. Stephanie’s role is to help people make sense of what’s happening and guide them through the next steps.
Stephanie looks after patients with both sudden and ongoing heart and blood vessel problems. This includes acute coronary situations like acute coronary syndrome and heart attacks. At times, she also helps patients manage serious events such as cardiac arrest and ventricular fibrillation, where quick decisions and steady care matter a lot.
There are also rarer heart conditions that need a careful, detailed approach. Stephanie works with people who have spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). She also helps with congenital coronary artery malformation, where the heart’s blood supply is formed differently from the usual pattern. Another condition she encounters is fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), which can affect blood flow in different parts of the body.
Some cases involve major blood vessel issues beyond the usual heart arteries. Stephanie supports patients who have aortic dissection, and she helps coordinate care when the situation is urgent. In some people, the heart problems may come with other health features too. An example listed in her practice focus is aniridia, which can be part of a wider medical picture that still needs careful heart assessment.
When someone is dealing with chest pain, breathlessness, fainting, or unusual symptoms, the aim is to get clear answers and a safe plan. Over time, that can mean urgent assessment, follow-up checks, and ongoing monitoring to reduce risk and keep things as stable as possible. Stephanie’s care style stays grounded and practical, with a focus on the heart problem at hand and what it means for everyday life.
