About of Iain S. Mcgregor

Iain S. Mcgregor is a neurologist in City Road, Camperdown, NSW 2006, Australia. Neurology can feel overwhelming at first, especially when symptoms come and go. Iain helps people understand what is happening and works through next steps in a calm, practical way.


His clinical focus is mainly on seizure and epilepsy care. That includes things like myoclonic epilepsy, absence seizures, and generalized tonic-clonic seizures. He also looks after complex childhood epilepsy conditions such as Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), as well as epilepsy with myoclonic-atonic seizures. When seizures affect daily life, sleep, learning, or behaviour, Iain focuses on the whole picture, not just the seizure in that moment.


At times, he also supports people dealing with other nervous system and brain-related issues. This can include memory loss, restless legs syndrome, insomnia, and transient tic disorder. There are also cases where neurological symptoms show up alongside broader concerns, such as autism spectrum disorder or schizophrenia. He aims to keep things grounded, so families and carers can follow what is going on and feel more confident with care plans.


Some presentations are urgent, like meningitis. Iain works with people who have had or are dealing with bacterial meningitis or pneumococcal meningitis, and he understands how quickly complications can change. He may also be involved when there are related problems such as acute pain, chronic pain, dehydration, hypothermia, and hypotonia. In many cases, these issues connect back to the nervous system, so it helps to have one team looking across the links.


Over time, Iain has built hands-on experience seeing a mix of children and adults with neurological conditions. His education is in neurology, with ongoing clinical learning alongside day-to-day patient care. There is research involved in the wider epilepsy and neurological field, but clinical trials details aren’t listed for this profile, so care is mainly described through practical treatment and follow-up.
