Charles M. Hage-El is an Infectious Disease Specialist based in Werribee, VIC. His clinic is located at 250 Princess Highway, Werribee, VIC 3030, Australia. If you’re dealing with an infection that just won’t settle, or you’re not sure what’s going on, Charles helps people sort through the next steps in a clear, practical way.
Infectious disease can be tricky. Symptoms can look similar across different illnesses, and sometimes test results don’t match what you’re feeling. Charles focuses on diagnosing and treating a wide range of infections, including everyday issues like flu and strep throat. He also looks after cases involving sexually transmitted infections such as chlamydia, and infections that can matter during pregnancy, like certain antenatal infections.
He also manages less common infections, including parasitic and worm-related conditions. At times, that can come from travel, food, or contact with certain environments. Some infections are linked to animals too, for example psittacosis, which can be associated with birds. The goal is the same no matter the cause: get the right treatment, reduce ongoing symptoms, and help prevent complications.
Charles’ approach is about getting things right without making it more stressful than it needs to be. He pays attention to your history and the pattern of symptoms. He then works with you and your other health providers to make sure testing and treatment plans fit your situation. In many cases, that means taking the time to explain what’s likely, what still needs checking, and why.
If you’ve had repeated infections, ongoing fever, strange fatigue, gut symptoms that keep coming back, or test results that leave questions, an infectious disease review can be helpful. Charles can guide the process for people who need careful follow-up, and for those where the infection may be more complex than it first seems.
Overall, Charles M. Hage-El looks after people with a broad mix of infections, from common respiratory illness to more unusual causes. Based in Werribee, he’s there to help patients make sense of what’s happening and move forward with the right care plan.
