Amanda Clacy is a neurologist based in Birtinya, Queensland. Her clinic address is 12 Innovation Parkway, Birtinya, QLD 4575, Australia. Neurology is about the brain and nervous system, and Amanda’s day to day work often centres on helping people after a concussion. It can be a worrying time, especially when symptoms linger and you’re not sure what’s normal.
Concussion care usually starts with a careful check of symptoms, how the injury happened, and how things are tracking since the hit to the head. At times, people feel foggy, get headaches, feel dizzy, or have trouble with sleep and concentration. Some also notice changes in mood or balance. Amanda looks at the whole picture, not just one symptom. That matters because two people can have the same type of injury, but their recovery can look quite different.
Over time, concussion recovery can come with ups and downs. Amanda helps people understand what they’re experiencing, and what to focus on next. The goal is to support safer return to normal activities, including work, study, exercise, and sport, based on how the brain and symptoms are doing. She also keeps an eye on warning signs that mean you should get more urgent help.
If you’re dealing with a recent head injury, or symptoms that haven’t settled the way you expected, it’s okay to get it checked. Amanda’s approach is practical and calm. She works with patients and families to sort out what’s going on, plan sensible next steps, and adjust as recovery changes. Booking a visit can be helpful even if you’re not sure exactly what you need, because a proper neurologic assessment can clear up confusion and guide the next stage of care.
