Carrie A. Van Der Weyden is a Hematologist-Oncologist based in Melbourne, working from 305 Grattan Street, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia. This type of doctor looks after people with cancers that start in the blood and lymph system, and it also includes some cancers that often show up on the skin.
Her work covers cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), including mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome. These conditions can cause long-lasting rashes, patches, or skin changes. At times, symptoms can be easy to miss at first, so careful check-ins matter. Carrie also treats other T-cell lymphomas, such as peripheral T-cell lymphoma and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, plus anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
She also supports people with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and lymphomatoid papulosis. Lymphofollicular hyperplasia is another related condition that may need review and monitoring. In some cases, treatment plans include managing day-to-day symptoms, watching how the illness changes over time, and making sure tests stay up to date.
Hodgkin lymphoma is also part of her clinical focus. For many people, lymph node swelling and ongoing fatigue are the first things that bring them in. From there, the goal is usually to understand what type of lymphoma it is and how active it seems, so the right treatment can be chosen.
Care doesn’t stop at the first decision. Over time, treatment can change depending on how the body responds and what side effects show up. Carrie’s approach is practical and steady, with clear explanations around what’s happening and what the next steps are. Ongoing follow-up is often a big part of the journey, especially with conditions that can come and go or need longer-term management.
Education details are not listed here, but Carrie works within the usual cancer-care pathway for diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up. Research and clinical trial information is not provided in the available details, so the focus here is on the core clinical work and the conditions described above.
