Beata V. Bajorek is a cardiologist based in Ultimo, NSW, working from Level 4, Building 7, 67 Thomas Street. She looks after people who need help with heart conditions that can also affect brain health, especially when stroke risk is part of the picture.
Her clinical work includes atrial fibrillation, which is an irregular heart rhythm. In many cases, atrial fibrillation can raise the risk of blood clots, and that’s why careful treatment matters. She also helps patients manage hypertension (high blood pressure), because high BP over time can strain the heart and increase risks for major health events.
Stroke care and prevention is another key part of her practice. This can be about making sure the heart and blood pressure are well controlled, but it can also mean thinking through what might have caused a problem in the first place and what to do next. At times, that involves looking at the links between heart rhythm issues and stroke risk.
Some people she cares for also have cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy. This condition affects small blood vessels in the brain. While it’s not only a heart problem, the heart and circulation still matter for overall risk. In these situations, getting the basics right—like blood pressure control and rhythm management—can be an important part of the long-term plan.
Patients may come in for ongoing management, follow-up care, or a clearer plan when symptoms keep coming back. Common things that get discussed include how a patient feels day to day, any past episodes, and the day-to-day choices that can support treatment. The focus stays practical: keeping the heart stable, reducing avoidable risks, and helping people feel more confident about their care.
If you’re dealing with atrial fibrillation, hypertension, or you have concerns about stroke risk, a cardiology review can help sort out what’s most relevant for your situation. Beata V. Bajorek’s clinic in Ultimo offers care for people where heart health and brain health are closely connected.
