Jane M. Tiller is a cardiologist based in Melbourne, working from 553 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne, VIC 3004, Australia.
Her work mainly looks after people with heart conditions that can run in families. In many cases, this includes cholesterol issues like high cholesterol and inherited forms such as heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (HeFH), familial hypercholesterolaemia, and defective apolipoprotein B-100. These conditions can raise cholesterol from a young age, so getting the right checks early can make a big difference.
Jane also cares for families dealing with inherited heart muscle problems. This can include familial dilated cardiomyopathy and familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. At times, she will also see people with inherited rhythm concerns, including familial ventricular tachycardia.
There’s often more going on than just the heart side of things. Alongside cardiology care, the kinds of conditions she commonly supports also include Lynch syndrome, ovarian cancer, and breast cancer risk. Some people also come with dementia concerns or primary lateral sclerosis, where families want clear guidance on overall health and what to watch for.
Because these illnesses can be passed down through families, care often involves looking at history, spotting patterns, and helping people understand what their results might mean. It’s not only about one person’s symptoms, either. Over time, advice can help relatives think about prevention and check-ups, not just treatment when things have already changed.
Jane’s approach stays practical and down to earth. She focuses on helping patients understand what’s likely, what’s less likely, and what the next step could be. For inherited conditions, that usually means making a clear plan and keeping things easy to follow.
Clinical trial involvement and research details aren’t listed here, so if you want to know about any current studies, it’s best to ask the practice directly when you book.
