Katie L. Mcmahon is a neurologist based in Joondalup, Perth, WA. She works from 270 Joondalup Drive and looks after people with a wide range of brain and nervous system conditions.
Neurology can be a bit broad, so Katie’s patients come with different concerns. In many cases she helps with memory problems and dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia. She also sees people with movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and other difficulties with movement and control.
Katie also treats people who have had a concussion or other brain injury issues, and she helps manage ongoing symptoms that can affect day-to-day life. Seizures are another key part of her work, including epilepsy and genetic forms of epilepsy, and she can also support families dealing with conditions like GEFS+.
Some visits are about thinking and speech, not just movement. For example, she may help with issues such as apraxia, dysarthria, and developmental dysphasia. At times she also works with people with attention and learning challenges, including ADHD and autism spectrum disorder, especially when there are also neurological factors in play.
There can also be mental health and mood changes tied in with brain conditions. Katie treats people with major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia where symptoms overlap with neurological concerns. This kind of care is often about looking at the full picture, not just one symptom.
Over time, her clinical experience covers both common and more complex conditions. That includes stroke care, primary lateral sclerosis, and some rare genetic or metabolic conditions such as MELAS and hemochromatosis, where the nervous system can be affected too.
Education details and specific research work aren’t listed here. Clinical trial information also isn’t shown. What is clear is the focus on practical, patient-led care for people and families dealing with tough diagnoses.
