Marc Stegger is an Infectious Disease Specialist based in Murdoch, WA. His practice address is 90 South Street, Murdoch, WA 6150, Australia. In this role, he looks after people dealing with infections that can be hard to treat, or infections that need careful monitoring to keep things under control.
Infectious diseases can show up in lots of different ways. At times, Marc helps with serious infections such as sepsis and meningitis. He also supports patients with chest and breathing infections, and conditions that involve the lungs or the lining around them.
Skin infections and soft tissue infections are another big part of the work. This can include things like cellulitis, lymphadenitis (swollen lymph nodes), and atopic dermatitis when infection plays a role. He also works with cases like MRSA, where bacteria are resistant and the treatment plan needs to be spot on.
Marc can also be involved when infections affect joints and bones. That includes infectious arthritis and septic arthritis. Heart-related infections may come up as well, such as infective endocarditis, where infection affects the heart valves.
Some of the cases in his practice relate to the urinary tract and gut. For example, urinary tract infections (UTIs), campylobacter infection, and hepatitis-related infections like hepatitis D may be managed with an infectious disease approach. At times, more complex abdominal infections are involved too, including peritonitis and secondary peritonitis.
There are also cases that come from bites, scratches, or other exposures. Cat scratch disease can fall into this group. Other infections he may help with include breast infections, endocarditis, and strep throat and other strep group A infections.
When it comes to what patients can expect, the key is getting the diagnosis right and choosing treatment that fits the specific infection. In many cases, that means working with the wider health team so care is clear and consistent.
Experience and education details aren’t listed in the information provided here. Clinical trial and research involvement also isn’t shown. What is clear is the focus: helping patients with a wide range of infections, from day-to-day illness to more serious, urgent presentations.
