About of James Howells

James Howells is a Neurologist based in Camperdown, NSW, working from 94 Mallett St, Camperdown, NSW 2050. Neurology can feel complicated at first, but James keeps things practical and down to earth, especially when symptoms affect sleep, movement, strength, or day-to-day comfort.


James looks after people with long-term nerve and muscle conditions. This can include motor neuron disorders such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease) and Primary Lateral Sclerosis. It can also include related muscle weakness conditions like Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (including Type 2 and Type 3). At times, it also covers how muscle cramps, twitching, and stiffness can show up, such as Cramp-Fasciculation Syndrome.


He also helps with problems that involve the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. For example, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and Multifocal Motor Neuropathy are part of his clinical focus. Restless Legs Syndrome may be another issue he assesses, along with symptoms that can have a burning or heat-like feel, such as Erythromelalgia.


In some cases, neurological symptoms can be linked with changes elsewhere in the body. James’ work also includes Neurotoxicity Syndromes and End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), where nerve and muscle symptoms may connect to broader health issues. He may also look at Inclusion Body Myositis when muscle weakness is part of the picture.


When it comes to experience, the details aren’t listed here. What is clear is that James’ neurology practice is set up for people dealing with nerve and muscle conditions that can take time to understand and manage.


Education information is also not shown here, so it’s best to ask directly if you want the exact training history. Research and clinical trials are not listed in the available details, but neurology care often involves staying up to date with new approaches, especially for complex conditions.
