Anthony P. James is an endocrinologist based at Kent Street, Bentley, WA 6102. Endocrinology is about the body’s hormone systems, and that affects a lot of everyday health issues, not just one area.
In practice, Anthony looks after people who are dealing with metabolic health problems. That can include obesity and abdominal obesity, plus conditions like metabolic syndrome. He also helps with lipid and fat-related concerns, such as familial hypertriglyceridemia, where triglyceride levels run high and can affect long-term health if it’s not managed well.
At times, people come in because weight or food patterns have changed over the years, or because they’ve been told their blood tests don’t look right. Other times, the worry is nutrition itself. Malnutrition can still happen even when someone is carrying extra weight, especially if their diet is not quite meeting what the body needs. Anthony focuses on making sense of the full picture—how hormones, weight, and test results fit together—so care plans are realistic and practical.
Care usually starts with careful listening, then checking symptoms and test results, and working out what might be driving the problem. From there, the approach is often about steadier habits and the right next steps, whether that means lifestyle changes, medication discussions, or follow-up reviews. The goal is simple: help people improve their metabolic health in a way that fits their life, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Anthony works with patients across the wider Bentley area and beyond, and understands that metabolic conditions can take time to get under control. Progress can be slow at first, then easier once the right support is in place. If you’re dealing with obesity, metabolic syndrome, high triglycerides, or nutrition concerns, Anthony is there to help you sort through it calmly and clearly.
