John J. Zaunders is an Immunologist based at St Vincent's Hospital in Darlinghurst, NSW, Australia. He works in a busy hospital setting where complex long-term health issues come up often. That means his day-to-day work can involve careful testing, working out what’s going on, and supporting treatment plans that fit the person in front of him.
As an immunologist, John focuses on the body’s immune system and how it can affect different conditions. In many cases, that includes looking after people with HIV/AIDS and supporting management of infections that can come with a weakened immune response. He also provides clinical support around cytomegalovirus infection, where timing and follow-up really matter.
John’s work also crosses into transplant and post-transplant care. Bone marrow transplant cases can be complex, and the immune system plays a big role in both recovery and complications. At times, that care needs close monitoring so problems are caught early and treatment can be adjusted.
Another big part of his practice is immune-related problems in the nose and sinuses. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is one example. People with nasal polyps can struggle with blocked noses, facial pressure, ongoing inflammation, and ongoing symptoms that don’t just go away. John also helps with nasal polyps and sinusitis more broadly, working to understand what’s driving the inflammation and how to settle it down.
He also looks after people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). MS involves the immune system affecting the brain and nerves. Care can be ongoing, with changes over time. In many cases, people need steady support, clear plans, and help making sense of what symptoms mean and what to do next.
Because immunology links together a lot of different body systems, John’s approach is practical. He focuses on getting the details right, using test results to guide decisions, and coordinating care with the wider team at St Vincent's Hospital. The goal is always to keep things grounded and manageable, especially when symptoms can be tough or unpredictable.
