About of Siew-may Loh

Siew-may Loh is an Infectious Disease Specialist based in South St, Murdoch, WA, Australia (Murdoch). She helps people who are dealing with infections that can be tricky to pin down, or that keep coming back.


Infectious diseases can affect anyone, but Siew-may often looks after patients with conditions linked to tick-borne illnesses and other rare or hard-to-diagnose infections. Her work includes relapsing fever, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and Lyme disease. At times, symptoms can come and go, which can make things stressful for both patients and families.


Because these infections can change over time, she focuses on careful assessment and clear next steps. In many cases, that means helping work out what might be causing the symptoms, then planning how to manage the infection and reduce the chance of it returning. She also understands that people may have already seen other clinicians, and they may bring previous test results or treatment history.


Over time, Siew-may has built experience treating infectious conditions where timing matters. Some illnesses can start like a flu-like illness and later look very different. That’s why she takes the full picture seriously, including how symptoms have shifted, when they started, and what treatments have been used so far.


Her education and training are in infectious diseases and related clinical care, with a strong focus on getting the diagnosis right and looking after patients safely. If research or clinical trial options are relevant for a person’s situation, she can discuss what’s possible based on the facts of their case, though specific trial details aren’t listed here.


If you’re in the Murdoch area and you’re looking for support with an infection that hasn’t settled, or you suspect a tick-borne illness, Siew-may Loh can be a helpful contact. The goal is simple: calm, practical care and a plan that makes sense.
