Sasha Dionisio is a Neurologist based in Brisbane, QLD, Australia. Their clinical work focuses on problems that affect the brain and the nervous system, especially seizure-related conditions.
In day-to-day appointments, Sasha looks after people who have seizures, including absence seizures and generalised tonic-clonic seizures. This can be a lot to manage, and the plan often includes careful checking of what’s happening, how often it happens, and what might be triggering it.
Some patients also come in with more complex seizure types, like status epilepticus. Others may be dealing with palatal myoclonus, where there are repeated muscle jerks, usually affecting the soft palate. At times, the symptoms can feel scary or confusing, so clear explanations and steady follow-up matter.
Sasha also works with people who have encephalitis and related conditions. This includes conditions like anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis and other brain inflammation situations. These illnesses can vary from person to person, and early support can make a real difference while treatment is getting set up.
Because these conditions can affect sleep, mood, work, driving, and safety at home, care is usually about more than just the diagnosis. It’s also about practical next steps, medication discussions, and watching how symptoms change over time.
Experience: The specific number of years or workplaces isn’t listed here, but Sasha’s practice covers a range of seizure and encephalitis presentations, from longer-running patterns to urgent concerns like status epilepticus.
Education: Training details like degrees or where study was completed aren’t listed here.
Research and clinical trials: Any research interests or clinical trial involvement aren’t shown in the available details. If that’s important for you, it may be worth asking the clinic directly at the time of booking.
