Mohana P. Kunasekaran is an Infectious Disease Specialist based in Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Infectious diseases can move fast, and they can look different from person to person. Mohana works with people who are dealing with infections such as flu, COVID-19, and monkeypox. They also look after cases involving more serious viral illnesses, including SARS, and they help manage concerns around infections caused by Togaviridae viruses.
Day to day, that might mean helping work out what’s going on when symptoms keep changing, or when the usual treatments aren’t quite cutting it. At times, it can be about supporting people who are sick and trying to recover safely. Other times, it’s about helping manage risk, especially when someone has other health issues or has been exposed to an infection.
Mohana understands that infection care is not just about the bug itself. It also covers how you’re coping at home, what to watch for, and when things need urgent review. Clear advice matters, particularly for families trying to make quick decisions while they’re stressed.
Over time, infectious disease work often means working alongside other services. Mohana may coordinate with local clinicians and teams so care stays consistent, from diagnosis through to follow-up. This can be important when managing ongoing symptoms, deciding on the right next steps, or keeping track of how someone is responding to treatment.
Training and clinical experience in infectious disease medicine help shape how Mohana approaches each case. The focus is on practical, evidence-based care, with attention to what’s current and what’s likely to help.
For public health moments too, infectious diseases can bring extra questions. Mohana helps people understand what the current guidance means for them, and how to reduce the risk of spreading illness to others—at home, at work, and in the community.
If you’re looking for help with an infection concern in Sydney, Mohana’s background in infectious disease care covers both common and more complex viral illnesses. The goal is to keep things clear, calm, and grounded, while supporting the safest recovery path possible.
