Con Yiannikas is a neurologist based in Camperdown, NSW. The practice address is 94 Mallett St, Camperdown NSW 2050, Australia.
Neurology can cover a wide range of problems, from nerves and muscles to the brain and spinal cord. Con Yiannikas works with people who are dealing with conditions that may affect movement, feeling, balance, and strength. This can include relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), optic neuritis, and other related nervous system issues.
In many cases, the goal is to understand what is going on and help guide next steps. That may be about managing symptoms over time, looking at flare-ups, or planning care when a condition is ongoing.
Care may also include people with motor neuron and muscle conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also called Lou Gehrig’s disease) and primary lateral sclerosis. At times, patients may also present with muscle weakness or changes that fit with conditions like spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and related muscle disorders.
Peripheral nerve and nerve-to-muscle problems are also part of the picture. This can include chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, autonomic neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, and mononeuritis multiplex. Some people are seen for issues like essential tremor and other movement disorders, where getting the right diagnosis matters.
There are also immune-related and inflammatory conditions that can be hard to sort out early on. Con Yiannikas looks after people with myasthenia gravis, neuromyelitis optica, transverse myelitis, and myelitis, along with related conditions such as chronic polyradiculoneuritis. Eye-related nervous system problems, including optic neuritis, can be included too.
Other conditions that may be assessed include focal dystonia, Isaacs’ syndrome, ganglion cysts when they affect nearby nerves, and some syndromes and rare neuromuscular conditions. The list of conditions is broad, and each case can be different.
