Anelia Dietmann is a Neurologist based in Camperdown, NSW. Her practice is at 92-94 Parramatta Rd, Camperdown, NSW 2050. She looks after people who have ongoing nervous system problems, as well as people who need help when their sleep and wake cycle isn’t behaving normally.
Daytime sleepiness is a big part of her work. This can show up as drowsiness, excessive daytime sleepiness, and sleep disorders like narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia. At times, it also links in with breathing-related sleep issues such as central sleep apnoea. These problems can be hard to explain day to day, so careful checking and clear next steps matter.
Alongside sleep concerns, she also helps with a range of neurological conditions. For example, Bell’s palsy and other forms of facial paralysis can be worrying and stressful, especially when symptoms come on quickly. She also treats nerve and arm-related problems such as brachial plexopathy and hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy, where people may get pain, weakness, or trouble using a limb.
Some patients see her after illnesses that affect the brain or nerves. This can include encephalitis and meningitis, and also viral and infection-related conditions such as herpes simplex encephalitis, chickenpox, and cat scratch disease. There are other rare causes too, like craniofacial-deafness-hand syndrome and deafness craniofacial syndrome. At times, her work also covers serious emergencies involving bleeding in the brain, including subarachnoid haemorrhage, and follow-up care around procedures such as thrombectomy.
Over time, neurologic symptoms can change. So the focus is often on understanding what’s going on now, what might be causing it, and what the safest plan is for the next step. Whether the issue is sleepiness, facial weakness, seizures like epilepsy, or an infection-related flare-up, Anelia Dietmann works with patients to bring things back to something more manageable.
