About of Francesca Galea

Francesca Galea is an Infectious Disease Specialist based in Menangle, NSW 2568. She looks after people with infections, especially when the cause needs careful checking and the right treatment plan.


In many cases, infectious disease problems can feel confusing and slow to settle. Symptoms may come and go, or they may look like something more common at first. Over time, getting the diagnosis right matters, because the treatment can be quite specific.


One of the areas Francesca Galea focuses on is psittacosis. This is an infection that can happen after contact with birds. At times, people don’t realise where they may have picked it up, so taking a clear history is part of the work. Her care is about sorting out what’s going on, supporting recovery, and making sure follow-up is on track.


As an infectious disease doctor, Francesca also helps manage the wider “why didn’t this get better?” questions. That can include deciding what tests are useful, reviewing medicines, and making sure treatment is safe and fits the situation. The goal is practical care that keeps things simple, while still being thorough when it counts.
