About of Jason C. Ray

Jason C. Ray is a neurologist in Heidelberg, VIC, working from 145 Studley Road, Heidelberg, VIC 3084. Neurology can sound scary, but most appointments start with something pretty everyday: ongoing headaches, dizzy spells, or nerve-related symptoms that just don’t settle down.

Jason looks after people with a wide range of neurological and pain-related problems. Headaches are a big part of his practice. This includes migraine, tension-type headaches, and headaches with brainstem aura. He also treats people with new daily persistent headache (NDPH) and other tricky headache patterns that can change over time.

Some patients come in with cluster headaches, and others have nerve pain in the face or around the head, like glossopharyngeal neuralgia. There are also cases involving facial paralysis and recurrent facial palsy. At times, symptoms can be linked to conditions that affect how nerves and muscles work together, so the focus is on understanding the cause and sorting out what’s driving the symptoms.

Jason also works with conditions that affect movement and the nervous system more broadly. This can include drug-induced dyskinesia, and family-based migraine patterns. Some people have cerebellar degeneration concerns, including subacute cerebellar degeneration and paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration, where symptoms may be tied to an underlying body process.

In many cases, patients also need help with symptoms that can be hard to explain at first, like trouble with balance, coordination, or feeling faint when standing. Jason treats postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and familial dysautonomia. He can also see people with fibromyalgia, and at times symptoms can overlap, so it’s about getting the full picture rather than treating just one complaint.

Swimmer’s ear is sometimes listed alongside these services too, which can fit when there are ear-related symptoms that affect comfort and balance. Either way, the aim is to keep things practical and clear.

Details about Jason’s education, experience length, and any research activities aren’t listed here. If you want to know more about training or whether clinical trials are relevant for your situation, it’s best to ask the clinic directly during your appointment.

Overall, the approach is calm and grounded: listen to what’s happening, connect symptoms to the right possible causes, and help you plan the next steps for treatment and follow-up.
